MYTHS, HEROES & INSPIRATION: Double book launch!

Adrian May talks about his two new books, especially his inspiration: Jessie L. Weston, author of From Ritual To Romance.

Myths and Heroes in Creative Writing: Re-Reading and Remaking offers a comprehensive overview of myth throughout history. Exploring a variety of forms, Adrian May provides a framework for the practice and process of writing myths.

Grail Island is a sequence of poems derived from and influenced by Grail myth. Guided by and dedicated to Jessie L. Weston (1850-1928), the poems often draw from her From Ritual to Romance plus Emma Jung and Marie-Louise von Franz’s The Grail Legend and other Grail and myth literature.

FREE entry. Refreshments available. Visitor parking on local roads and nearby Hythe Community Centre (when open).
