The Lee Shore: A Parable of Apocalypse, Carnal Knowledge & Quantum Theory; a Sailing Primer . . . & a Love Story
WARNING: Preconceived notions may be damaged upon opening.
“It’s a common enough occurrence for a sailor to become romantically involved with a responsive vessel — though seldom so intimately. And many a mariner, becalmed, might have dreamt of a lover who could raise the wind — but few find such creatures in the local pub. With both in the same port, however . . . it’s just a matter of time before his sailboat invites his new girlfriend over for tea and a chat regarding polygamous marriage customs.
“When charting a coastline that’s still a squalling infant is the family business, where you go from here is always the tricky part.”
This novel is a work of speculative fiction so original it will challenge your very conceptions of the world. Hence, the warning label which appears on the back cover. Perhaps a glance at a few of the topics it embraces will help explain why.
Subject Matter: charting a new coastline, earth changes, Yosemite, sailing, navigation, synchronicity, alternative families, matriarchy, polygamy, polygyny, polyandry, artificial intelligence, quantum physics, Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle, Möbius (Mobius) strips, Klein bottles, parthenogenesis, reincarnation, polytheism, paganism, goddess worship, King James Bible, herbalism, redwood groves, mint, the solstice, the equinox, Beltane, Samhain, magic
