In this collection, Caitlín Matthews gathers together many of the poems and songs that have marked her long career as a singer, writer, ritualist, and performer. These mythographic poems arise from the song that always singing at the threshold of the otherworld and the apparent world, where the poet becomes a walker between worlds. When the song of the ancient starlight falls to earth, we hear the voice that is resounding at the edge of hearing. It is here that wisdom arises, directing the soul along the mythic road where truth and devotion are honed by life to sharpness and compassion. Arranged thematically, the poems and songs evoke the ancestral beings and divinities of Britain and Ireland, and beyond, with the deep connections that maintain the poet's belonging to the land. Poems of love, songs of seasons and places, dreams, visions and prayers uphold the way of myth and story that make life shine and sing.
