Soul Mining

by Barbara Knott

A chapbook of poems described by Rosemary Daniell as "a treasure trove of wisdom, both ancient and modern." In it, Barbara Knott works poetically with notions of soul from depth psychology as well as a long poetic tradition that explores soul-making (a term picked up by James Hillman from poet John Keats) through imaginative writing.
