About this piece
Ithell Colquhoun's The Living Stones: Cornwall is a paperback on the county's folklore, standing stones and holy wells. It suits readers of classic travel writing, anyone curious about Celtic myth and anyone drawn to the occult. It is part of the Pushkin Press Classics series.
Colquhoun first came to Cornwall in the late 1940s, looking for a studio and a refuge from bombed-out London, and the county stayed with her for life. Here the ancient Celtic past reaches into the present, and every tree, standing stone and holy well carries its own folklore. The book runs to 240 pages, measures 197 x 130 x 23 mm, and includes a new introduction by Edward Parnell.
Standing stones, holy wells and mysticism sit within this book's subjects, which also include magic, ritual and classic travel writing. Add Colquhoun's The Living Stones: Cornwall to your shelf and start your own walk through Cornwall's folklore.
