The Memory Tapes of John I. Pearl: An Invitation of Birds (The Pearl Trilogy: An Invitation of Birds #2)

Description

An Invitation of Birds, Book 2 of The Memory Tapes of John I. Pearl, is the center volume in a work of magic realism by author, James Farrelly. It begins within weeks of Pearl's time-bending journey in and beyond the Pacific Ocean; An Invitation of Birds involves his travels to his ancestral homeland of Ireland with writing in which the poetic, the historic, the mythical, and the allegorical bleed into one. The people, the places, the musical and literary traditions that form Ireland's heritage become touchstones in Pearl's transformative homecoming. Over a period of twelve days, his wanderings through the Emerald Isle bring him face to face with the elemental forces and figures so influential to Ireland's contributions to our world. All the while, the author's prose, poetry, and song seeks to catapult the reader into realms of living spirit, present in bardic memory, that eternally shines through the country's greenclad hills, that sings from the depths of its mystic sea, and that calls from its very standing stones those voices of light that guide our evolution. The All-Circling Thresholds, Book 1 of The Pearl Trilogy will soon be available in both paperback and e-book editions through Amazon. It was the first book published in the series, and the cover features the composite imaging of The Golden Gate Bridge & Planetary Nebula (NASA). The Listening Muse, Book 3 of The Pearl Trilogy will be released in 2020. All three books in The Pearl Trilogy feature original artwork that is emblematic of the drama in the unfolding tale.
