Description

The chalk downs of Sussex possess a fascinating cultural tapestry of folk belief, spell-craft, charms, and lore.With its situation at the crossroads of eastern and western England, as well as its proximity to the sea, it as witnessed centuries of cultural migrations which have resulted in a diverse admixture of magical traditions. In Martin Duffy's third major work for Three Hands Press, the external strata of Sussex magic and folklore are brought fort in a richly-woven narrative that brings these powerful traditions to life. The text is augmented by over 30 photographs, featuring rare artifacts from the region's storied history of image magic.
