Synopsis
A troubled, brilliant artist's story, told in the voice of a magnificent tree that becomes his inspiration and guardian. A boy's self-developed talent grows into an artistic genius with a very special connection to nature. But touching nature so deeply leads to intensity of feeling and vision that unsettles his life. While relationships disintegrate around him, can he hold onto his creative powers? This exceptional novel explores the connections between creativity, love, madness, beauty and man's relation to nature. Its unusual narrator tells a gripping story with an understanding that is beyond human yet linked deeply to the artist's vision. "Persun ...weaves an imaginative tale exploring the complex relationship between art and madness."-Tim W. Brown, Small Press Review "The Witness Tree is a unique and engaging novel about the relationship between the creative and the practical sides of human beings and their spiritual and psychic connection with nature, so necessary to being balanced and whole in an increasingly complex world."-James A.
