Reviews

scrapsoflife : I agree that this is a lovely introduction to an idea but needs more concrete information to balance the ethereal. A pleasurable read to be certain. (Makes me want to take the Yeats from the shelf and spend an evening in faery myself.) (27-Mar-07)

Sandy Lulay : Beautiful! As one of those who dream, I felt you were speaking to me! Many of my poems have been inspired by "listening" to the earth signs "speak". (20-Feb-07)

Malcolm Sterling : This entire article has a dreamy almost surreal quality to it. I'm not sure the crux of the message came across as strong as you might have intended because of this. While I enjoyed it, my mind kept wandering away from the content to the visual. In this instance I think this article would benefit from more direct examples and expresssions. Your point kinda gets lost in the fog of the isles. That's just me though. Perhaps I spent too much time in faery and have become mad? Your style is strong and smooth. I'm not sure I grasp the overall meaning of the article though. I'll read it again. I really like the line, "It rends our hearts and exhausts our souls." But the second paragraph could use some more concrete examples of how to find the messages left in song and story. How do we get to the point where we can find them, when we are looking for them? Does this make sense? Thanks for listening. I hope this is helpful. (26-Jan-07)
