    In this beautifully crafted and produced book Nathaniel and artist Fiona Owen weave together their work to open new doorways into plant-time for the reader. The approach outlined in this book is the distillation of many years teaching experience leading people into more intuitive relationships with plants. We explore what it means to let go of any preconceptions of a plant and meet it in our truth and our vulnerability. Within this meeting between our honest-selves and the plant is a unique relationship, apparently subtle at first, but growing quickly as we nurture it with our awareness and care. We explore how our dream worlds, accessed both in sleep and consciously through journeying, can quickly deepen this relationship and how some of the strongest medicine is to be found in moving though our own layers of projection. For anyone wishing to dive deeper into herbal medicine, this book offers a rich spread of ideas, encouragement and approach to help you find the plant's medicine for yourself.

    Revenge of the Scapegoat is a surreal take on the tendency people have to damage those we claim to love and the way parental cruelty renders the world unrecognizable.” Catherine Lacey One day Iris, an adjunct at a city arts college, receives a terrible package: recently unearthed letters that her father had written to her in her teens, in which he blames her for their family’s crises. Driven by the raw fact of receiving these devastating letters not once but twice in a lifetime, and in a panic of chronic pain brought on by rheumatoid arthritis, Iris escapes to the countryside—or some absurdist version of it.
