Welcome to Litsy!

A dreamy meditation on wilderness, art, the environment, and the hidden beings and places that haunt the world. An indictment of our treatment of nature, the story is angry and wistful in turns — but ultimately lands in a place of hope. Not my favourite of De Lint‘s works by far, somehow lacking the ethereal magic that usually flavours his writing, but I enjoyed it. And you cannot beat Brian Froud for adding beauty, mystery, and a bit of sly fun.

I kind of love the idea of responsibility being the breaking point, and causing a whirlwind of chaos rather than solving it...

So, I‘ve been cataloguing my books — for interest as much as anything — and there has been a possibly unfortunate side effect...Looking for covers and such online has led me to discover series‘ that are out of print are still available — MOAR BOOKS! 📚📚📚

This is my absolute favourite de Lint book. Brian Froud (artwork : The Faeries Queen by Brian Froud) collaborated with some authors to produce stories based on his artwork. My copy Is the paperback reprint minus the art :( de Lint's prose & strong mythological ties creates a beautiful magical tale
