Blind Walls

Conrad Bishop, Elizabeth Fuller

a novel of blue-collar ghosts

It’s a monstrous maze of a mansion, built by a grief-ridden heiress. A tour guide, about to retire, has given his spiel for so many years that he’s gone blind. On this last tour, he’s slammed with second sight. He sees the ghosts he’s always felt were there: the bedeviled heiress, her servants, and a young carpenter who lands his dream job only to become a lifelong slave to her obsession. The workman’s wife struggles to make it to shore, but he’s cast adrift. And the tour guide comes home to his cat.

On Pagan Roads

David Arv Bragi

July 6, 2019. Bellingham, Washington.

David Arv Bragi has published a book of historical fiction titled “On Pagan Roads,” a lively collection of short tales and character sketches describing life among Wiccans, Pagans, hippies, ceremonial magicians, vagabonds, sex workers, street preachers, petty crooks and assorted eccentrics during the late 1970s and early 1980s.

“Better historians than I will write the definitive chronicles of Wicca and the twentieth century occult revival,” says Bragi in the book’s introduction. “On Pagan Roads is simply my personal recollection of those misty, mythical days of yore, when the Mysteries of the Ages smashed headlong into the Age of Polyester.”

Pagan Mysticism: Paganism as a World Religion

Michael York

Cambridge Scholars Publishing, Dec 10, 2018

As a non-dogmatic religion, paganism is a spiritualty that is variously interpreted in terms of nature worship, this-worldliness, the valuing of the physical, and multiple understandings of the sacred. Like most religions, pagan spirituality also entertains the experience of mystical ecstasy as an intense state of psycho-spiritual consciousness that radically diverges from ordinary waking awareness.

This volume addresses two fundamental questions, namely: “how do the world’s religions understand the mystical and its pursuit?”, and “how and why does paganism offer something different?” Proverbially, the mystical quest is an ultimate human endeavour. The re-emergence of pagan thought in contemporary times challenges the obsolete and unlocks both innovation and available forms of transpersonal emancipation.
