The Lost Spells [J0102]

2020 - HCDJ Excellent condition. The follow-up to the internationally bestselling sensation The Lost Words, The Lost Spells is a beautiful collection of poems and illustrations that evokes the magic of the everyday natural world. The Lost Spells conjures up red foxes, birch trees, jackdaws, and more in poems and illustrations that flow between the pages and into readers' minds. Robert Macfarlane's spell-poems and Jackie Morris's watercolour illustrations are musical and magical: these are summoning spells, words of recollection, charms of protection. To read The Lost Spells is to see anew the natural world within our grasp and to be reminded of what happens when we allow it to slip away.

From recent Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "Heard myself say, "how fun!", as I read this poetry. A breath of fresh air. Beautiful writing. A nice treat!"; "Gorgeous artwork and poetry that ranges from elegant to whimsical, this book really does seem magical. It's intended to be read aloud, preferably in nature, and I hope I get the opportunity to do so."; "This is an absolutely beautiful book. I have the Lost Words and I needed this to complete what I consider a series. The artwork is beautiful, the spells delightful."
