Through the raw, tactile power of expressionist oil painting, Karmen-ita guides us in a visual exploration of the shadows. The th...

It asks a qu...

It is a call ...

This book moves through the British Isles as they were — and as they still are in the places where the old stories refuse to leave. From the Celtic magic of the highlands to the courtrooms of the great witch trials, from the ...
