BOOK DESCRIPTION:
Tapestry is a seven book collection in a hand-crafted, hand-bound, hardcover book and is in its essence a Volume of Completed Works. Tapestry includes four new works entitled the Gravity of Conscience (an entreaty of poems for beauty and the natural world); Ancient Memories of Ireland (poems of myth and legend); The Ritual (saving Arnhem Land about the Australian Aborigines); and a section called Rogues and Other Poems.
Tapestry also includes three previously published works, The Way of Dreams; A Pilgrim's Journal (renamed from In Search of the Ancient); and Stories at the Stone Gate (an expanded and completed stage play version of the The Celt & The Crone).
This collection is varied in its genre and will give you many happy hours of exploring the depths of the human condition, the deep past of ancient Ireland, the mysterious culture of the Aborigines, and the flight of dreams and aspirations. The book is hand crafted by
Brownes Bookbinders and is a hardcover, bound in linen cloth, with Gold Leaf Emboss, and a decorative headband. Truly a book that will stand the test of time.
