Synopsis

This volume gathers Peg Elliott Mayo's finest and most varied work on an astounding range of topics from thoughtful to irreverent. Each piece was written to stand alone and their range is refreshing. 'The Collection' is of newspaper columns on subjects from The Seven Deadly Virtues and heavenly virtues to friendship and life in the country. 'The Bog Brooch,' an Irish myth, carries the central character from heedless wench to heroine in a refreshing jaunt to self-discovery. 'An Enthusiastic Introduction to Basketry' is not a recipe book, but a pleasant explanation of the techniques and intoxication of the ancient craft. 'An Irish 1979' - Traveling the Ring of Kerry in a horse-drawn 'czravan' with son and grandson was the start of a grand six-week exploration of the west of Ireland. 'A Discussion of Celtic Spirituality' makes familiar the metaphors and teaching of Nature as it reflects in human experience. Peg Elliott Mayo lives beside a river in the forest of Western Oregon with Shy Guy, Folly, The Splendid Cat and Gingersnap, an outstanding dawg. A retired psychotherapist, she writes of nature's lessons and life's experiences with empathy, curiosity and humor.
