博客來From the times of Norse myths to the 21st Century Mistletoe has been a constant cultural presence and the continuity of human (and divine) experiences of loss and seeking to find happiness in the darkest times is important to us all.
Across the centuries the experiences of people in need of help can reflect to us the power of knowing when to ask for it, and sometimes finding it unexpected places. This humble plant helps us bring together magic, medicine, seasonal rituals or just being a simple symbols of happier times. In these stories the everyday magic of our lives can be rediscovered and lessons that even in the depths of our darkest times it is possible to rediscover joy and bring peace to aching hearts.
Encompassing the town of Old Bridge, the local gentry and the descendants into the 21st Century these stories bridge the centuries and allow us to share in the pain and joy of the human condition. Each stands alone as a frozen moment in history but taken together are a thread in the tapestry of time that helps us remember how we got to where we are now.
