This book collects writings on paganism & witchcraft by award winning author, K. A. Laity. This collection represents a wide range of pieces touching on the breadth of her interests in paganism and witchcraft. It includes everything from short pieces for pagan/spirituality journals like The Seeker Journal, The Beltane Papers, Circle and New Witch, papers delivered at academic conferences or published in academic journals as well as a few reviews and translations of old magical texts.
The essays deal with charms, rituals, cannibalism, demons, Alan Moore, George Harrison and puppets. If that’s not range, I don’t know what is.“Laity is a very remarkable sorceress indeed.”
~ Elizabeth Hand, author of Waking the Moon“ROOK CHANT is a delicious in-gathering, a magpie’s nest of shiny new things about subjects old, gnarled and powerful. Sit with it, relish it and be bound likewise into a breathing tradition that puts Potter et al to shame. It is a charm well-sung and a talisman.”
