Song of the Crow - Layne Maheu - Bog

Bag om Song of the Crow

The narrator of this ancient story, a crow, learns of this creature called Noah just as the woods come crashing down around him, to become building materials for the ark. The stone ax of this gray-headed beastman blasts not only the trees of the "songscape," but also the very order of things to come. At a time when our own human landscape seems increasingly challenged, Song of the Crow asks us to linger in an ancient world of elemental wonders. Sensuous and cinematic, this retelling of the Flood Myth brings us to the intelligence of another creature, our relationship to the animals and the natural world, and the impact of free will as we struggle. Lyric, deeply imagined, charged with wisdom and wit, Layne Maheu's story asks the big questions as we understand our journey on the rising tides between the heavens and earth.
