Feather Fall, An anthology, Laurens van der Post

This evocative and thought-provoking selection from the writings of Laurens van der Post distils the essence of the writer, thinker, philosopher and man of action. It takes the reader on a trail of discovery through the themes and patterns, the ideas and passionate concerns which have informed his life and his work, from childhood in Africa and his experiences in wartime Japan, to his thoughts on war and forgiveness, the Bushman and the storyteller, Jung and the dreamer, the endangered planet, history and memory, the masculine and feminine, the wonder and the mystery. 

Chosen and organised thematically with affection and insight by Jean Marc Pottiez, the passages in this anthology vary from familiar pages to delightfully unexpected apercus and buried nuggets of wison, and range across all Laurens van der Post's work, published and unpublished.
