Carol Sill’s mystical book tells the story of an essence gatherer living in solitude in a driftwood cabin in the dunes.

She enters the magic transformation of mythopoetic experience, and is shown the way to compile a personal Book of Secrets.

But when imagination and intuition meet in the dunes, things aren’t always as they seem. Drifting sands cover and uncover events, treasures, and memories. She is challenged by her history and grasps for balance in the “live and let live” world of the California Dunites.

Metaphysics, alchemy, poetics and mysticism all play together in her private imaginaire, as life opens to a far wider horizon. With support from her friend Cath, and inspiration from Ella and Gwyneth, the essence gatherer soon finds a personal path that is for her alone.
