A fascinating dance of ideas
Reviewed by Margaret Miller in The British Columbia Review
An eastern mystic and western psychic walk into a bar…
Not too much surprises me these days, but this book did, in the best possible way. Jonas and the Mountain: A Metaphysical Love Story is one of the most original and compelling books I have read in many years. As the subtitle suggests, this is a story about ideas and the love of ideas – a Read more of this blog post »

| Oh Andromeda, please stop this foray into suspense. There is just not enough back story—why don’t you explore HIS background more?—and what you have about hers… I just can’t connect the character of today with her trauma of yesterday. You make it wor ...more | |

| Wow. This beautiful book cements Andromeda Romano-Lax as one of my favourite authors and I believe one of the best contemporary literary writers writing today. | |

| Was first off thrilled that Romano-Lax wrote a novel about a writing retreat. So many novels are centred around other arts like painting or dancing or music. Writing, how refreshing, and appropriate in this day of self published memoir. I’m not a rea ...more | |

“Everything is symbolic, and the meaning of the symbol lies within you. Interpret it.
There is a message there for you.”
― Jonas and the Mountain: A Metaphysical Love Story
There is a message there for you.”
― Jonas and the Mountain: A Metaphysical Love Story
“Death is a shift of focus. There is no loss; no one disappears. The people who are important to you are like constellations of stars in the night sky. What you see shifts depending on your vantage point. It doesn’t mean that the stars you can’t see have disappeared. We each exist this way to each other, flickering in and out. Death is but another flicker. The constellation remains—the relationships, which are, ultimately, a kind of love.”

“When you die you don’t leave anything or anyone. The world as you knew it falls away because it only existed in your perception. No one is left behind. You’re all still there, stars in a constellation, just flickering in a different way because you’ve shifted your perspective.”
