This book is magical
I can't help but think that some readers have missed the point, because it is made so quietly. The book has two stories. One is familiar to anyone who has read fairy tales. The other is familiar to anyone who has been paying attention. What Peg Kerr has done is elegantly weave the stories, demonstrating without shouting that the underlying messages of fairy tales are desperately necessary in ...

A fantastic journey through the recesses of your mind...
This book is sometimes painful, often challenging, and occasionally glorious. My Reclaiming community based an elements course around this book, and we based each class on the exploration of an element, as outlined in 12 Wild Swans. Starhawk artfully guides the reader through Self, gently unearthing those secret desires and wicked vows we make to ourselves. The book explains each step of the ...

Want to Understand China? Read This Book
Before leaving for my 2004-05 sojourn in China, I naturally sought to acquaint myself with the culture in which I was about to live and work. Of the various books I read (which ranged from Chinese history to essays from American expats to descriptions of "the Asian mind" as applied to Western business people), it turned out that this book was BY FAR the most helpful in my day-to-day interactions ...

an absolute must for Romance/Fiction readers
I read Wild Swan, originally when I was 17. I'm now 32 and have read all of Ms. DeBlasis' books - I'm on my third copy. Wild Swan is the first in a series of three. Another of her books, 'The Proud Breed' is a must if you want to get a feel for her storytelling without committing yourself to three books. "wild Swan" is the opening of a trilogy which spans close to 100 years in a family ...

The nineteenth autumn has come upon me Since I first made my count; I saw, before I had well finished, All suddenly mount And scatter wheeling in great broken rings Upon their clamorous wings.

Once upon a time there was a king who became lost in an enchanted forest. There he encountered an old woman who agreed to show him the way home, but only if he agreed to marry her daughter. Although she was the most beautiful woman the king had ever seen, he feared that his bride-to-be was also a witch, so he agreed to the proposal of the old woman with one condition. The wedding would take ...

beautiful, evocative tale for children and adults
We took this out of the library some months ago and it is still with me. The tale is marvelous: light, airy, beautiful but the pictures are what carry the book. They are carefully crafted and have a spirituality all of their own. I can't wait to get my hands on a copy and send a couple to friends of mine. Transportational!

A Wonderful Humorous Romance!
This is the funniest romance novel I have read this year. It's an exceptionally well-written twisted fairy tale, but so much more. I highly recommend it. A keeper!
