The Wounded Land

This is the third time I've read this book and it drew me in possibly more this time than before. I think that the older I get, the more these make sense. Every year when it gets to summer and I have to keep cutting the grass and the hedge, I naturally think of the fertile sun. And, being on the west coast of Scotland, I'm also often reminded of the sun of rain. I find myself thinking of natural law and God and corruption – big topics!

But it's not just that; it's Linden's empathy and earth sight too. There is a whole spiritual element to this tale that I'm really starting to get.

The five stars remain.
