Attars

Meet the essence gatherer. Living in solitude in a driftwood cabin in the dunes, she enters the magic transformation of mythopoetic experience, and is shown the way to compile a personal Book of Secrets. But when imagination and intuition meet in the dunes, things aren't always as they seem. Drifting sands cover and uncover events, treasures, and memories. She is challenged by her history and grasps for balance in the "live and let live" world of the California Dunites. Metaphysics, alchemy, poetics and mysticism all play together in her private imaginaire, as life opens to a far wider horizon. With support from her friend Cath, and inspiration from Ella and Gwyneth, the essence gatherer soon finds a personal path that is for her alone. ATTARS is an account of liminal events happening behind the scenes when a collector of essences writes her initiatory Book of Secrets. "As I read through Carol Sill's new book, I became deeply intrigued with the downright originality of Attars. I couldn't stop thinking about it long after it was done. You won't have read anything quite like it before. It is brilliant and wise." Ann Mortifee
