Sinossi

The depths of the womb are often not fully understood. Not only is it a source of life energy but the womb is the source of a woman's healing and a testament to her regenerating ability. This poetry collection honors the womb's capacity to heal herself, to birth her dreams, and to navigate the shadows of the feminine experience. From the loss of childhood innocence to the denial of societal expectations and conditioning, witness the peeling, shedding, and eventual re-birthing of a woman, through these poems, much like a phoenix rising from healing ashes of pain. Join me through moments of light, love, self-doubt, and conversations with grace.
My prayer for you is that these words guide you to your own healing grace.

The Waste Land

T. S. Eliot

In The Waste Land, T.S. Eliot presents a haunting and fragmented vision of a world in decline—a world ravaged by war, disillusionment, and spiritual desolation. Considered one of the most influential poems of the 20th century, The Waste Land is a complex mosaic of voices, mythic references, and shifting landscapes, capturing the fractured psyche of modern life.

Through its five sections, Eliot explores the themes of fragmentation, despair, and the search for meaning in a society torn apart by cultural and spiritual crisis. From the bleak and desolate opening lines, the poem journeys through images of decay, lost hope, and barren landscapes, interspersed with moments of revelation and the possibility of redemption. With references to works ranging from the Bible to Dante, the Upanishads to the Grail myth, The Waste Land weaves a dense web of cultural and literary allusions, challenging readers to confront the disintegration of modern civilization.

A bold exploration of the fractured nature of contemporary existence, The Waste Land is both a lament and a call to find hope amidst the ruins—an extraordinary work of literary art that continues to resonate with readers in the modern age.

Red Star Over Hebrides

Donald S. Murray

Even as he grew up on the edge of Lewis, the vastness of Russia never felt too distant for Donald S Murray. Its great literary traditions were often discussed in his home village, while the political unrest and religious fervour that marked its past and present were occassionally reflected in his life on the island. Inspired by the Russian canon, the songs, verse and stories contained within these pages draw upon the experiences of his youth, shifting continually between myth and history, the absurd and moving, the satirical and everyday. Its extraordinary and diverse narratives underline the truth of its opening line: 'I can see these islands mirror Russia.'
