This is a beautiful book to treasure and spread among worthy friends. -Sylvia Perera, Author of 'Descent to the Goddess' and 'Celtic Queen Maeve and Addiction.' . . . Naomi Ruth Lowinsky offers us a superbly detailed investigation of the powerful, mythic forces of the world as they are revealed to the active creative self. Don't miss this enlightening and fascinating book. -David St. John, Author of 'Study for the World's Body: New and Selected Poems' and 'Prism.' Naomi's poetry and prose is infused with the suffering and joys of humans everywhere.
