Book Synopsis Spirits of Place by : Alan Moore

Download or read book Spirits of Place written by Alan Moore and published by . This book was released on 2016-11-22 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stories are embedded in the world around us; in metal, in brick, in concrete, and in wood. In the very earth beneath our feet. Our history surrounds us and the tales we tell, true or otherwise, are always rooted in what has gone before. The spirits of place are the echoes of people, of events, of ideas which have become imprinted upon a location, for better or for worse. They are the genii loci of classical Roman religion, the disquieting atmosphere of a former battlefield, the comfort and familiarity of a childhood home. Twelve authors take us on a journey; a tour of places where they themselves have encountered, and consulted with, these Spirits of Place.
