Death is a hollow drum whose beat has measured out my adult life.' So writes Jay Macallan Stewart in her latest volume of memoirs. But nobody has ever asked whether that has been by accident or design. Nobody, that is, until Jay turns her sights on newly-wed & freshly-widowed Magda Newsam. For Magda's mother Corinna is an Oxford don who knows enough of Jay's history to be very afraid indeed. Determined to protect her daughter, Corinna turns to clinical psychologist Charlie Flint. But it's not the best time for Charlie. Her career is in ruins. Pilloried by the press, under investigation by her peers, she's barred from the profiling work she loves. What Corinna's asking may be her last chance at redemption. But as Charlie digs into the past & its trail of bodies she starts to realise the price of truth may be more than she wants to pay. Contains 5 CDs & approx runtime is 360 mins ...

Product Description

Tricksters have been around since the beginning of time.

This archetype is a figure that appears in folklore & mythology from around the world, & presents itself in a variety of forms, including animal (Coyote, Raven, Brer Rabbit), human (Jack in the Beanstalk), & deity (Norse Loki). The trickster is a complex character with an altogether different type of energy that is surprisingly essential to our wellbeing.

This archetype represents the unexpected. Events that happen beyond our control & that can test us to the very limits. Yet these events, no matter how challenging, can also teach us something about ourselves & the need for spontaneity.

In Trickster Magic Kirsten Riddle explores these irresistible rascals who are the arrogant charmers we love to hate, the individuals that get under our skin & who despite their disruptive nature, always seem to fall on their feet. So how can we work with such erratic energy & invite the trickster into our lives without causing mayhem?

The key is in learning to embrace change. Seeing it as an opportunity for growth & taking on some aspects of the Trickster’s complex psyche.
