The Honey in the Bones: Poems to Rewild the Soul - Paperback

by Caroline Mellor (Author)

The book is a spell. A rewilding of the soul. A realignment with the sacred cycles of nature and our bodies, and an invocation to restore kinship, reciprocity and harmony in barbarous, disconnected times.

From one winter solstice to the next, we dance from darkness to light and back again, encompassing sweetness and bitterness, times of rest and celebration, grief and healing, and cohering in the beauty, magic and wisdom of embracing the whole. The Honey in the Bones reminds us that the sweetness and nourishment we seek in life are always available within.

This is poetry as witchcraft, activism, healing, prayer and play. It is gentle, potent medicine for anyone who holds a vision for a kinder world. Above all, it is a love letter to an Earth on the cusp, and a mother's dream of hope for the future.

CAROLINE MELLOR lives in East Sussex with her husband and two children. The Honey in the Bones is her debut collection of poetry and prose.
