Aflame is the first book written by the author (1998) during an intense and splendid reverie of eclosion which set mind, body and spirit aflame with visions and inspiration in order "to arrive at the unknown through the disordering of all the senses."
Aflame is a glorious and boldly playful work of imaginative bonfire as well as a warm transpersonal celebration of fellow artists, nature, life and wonder. Aflame is the counterpoint of Falling Leaves Observation (1999).
"Reading Carter is like falling into a trance and emerging into an unexplored dream world where one discovers reality in a startling new way." -US Review of Books
