There are many more, of course. Books that became teachers, friends and guides, by people who saw the world with either a shadow of my own sight, or were chocked full of imformation that I seemed to be able to instictualy distill. Now I am old school. I like paper books. I love their smell, old and new. I love the way pages fall open exactly where and when I need them too.
I love these books in particular because years after you have read them they suddenly show you something, something you were not looking for; something magick.
My little book, I would love one day for it to be someones friend, guide and teacher. In a dark red hardback cover with a picture of a key on it; written by Lucy Drake....
