Description

Embark on an extraordinary journey into the depths of the human psyche with Stuart Eglin’s latest poetry collection. For over two decades, Stuart has woven the enigmatic figure of alice into his literary works, originally introducing her in the novel ‘The Butterfly Principle.’ She also appears in ‘The Inner Fire‘.

Through the lens of Carl Jung’s active imagination, Stuart brings alice to life, embodying the inner feminine within man. In this captivatiing collection of poems, alice emerges as a muse and confidante, guiding readers through narrative arcs that traverse history, literature, philosophy, and psychology.

From the haunting portraits in the ‘Warehouse of Alices’—where ten characters from the annals of time, both virtuous and malevolent, young and old, are captured — to the concluding symphonic form of the ‘Festival of Alices,’ these poems will evoke strong feelings in the reader.

At once deeply personal and universally resonant, Stuart’s verses beckon readers to explore profound truths and timeless themes. Each reading unveils new layers of meaning, inviting introspection and discovery in an age marked by ambiguity and upheaval.
