About the Author

*** If you wish to contact me about my writing, use [e-mail] ***

Quiet academic type from North West England. BA English, MA Renaissance Literature.

I studied in exile by the rivers of Babylon for 3 years, aka Cambridge. And I descended into Egypt, aka PricewaterhouseCoopers. Now I live in a spiritual hermitage where I study literature, philosophy and religion.

I will let my book preferences speak for me; hopefully you will get an idea of my personality. Here is my current top 5 of spiritual works, a genre I hold very close to my heart:

1. The Bible; 2. Bonaventure, Journey of the Mind to God; 3. Augustine, Confessions; 4. Kempis, Imitation of Christ; 5. The Bhagavad Gita.

Here is my top 5 of literary works:

1. Dante, Divine Comedy; 2. Cervantes, Don Quixote; 3. Dostoevsky, Crime and Punishment; 4. Herbert, The Temple; 5. Shakespeare, Macbeth.

And finally, my top 5 philosophy / general interest:

1. Plato, Phaedrus; 2. Nietzsche, On the Genealogy of Morals; 3. Hume, An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding; 4. Aurelius, Meditations; 5. Freud, Civilisation and its Discontents.

I like to balance my reading between competing visions and challenge myself - hopefully you get a sense of this from my lists.
