Sunscreen

Maria Richardson

Paperback, 172 pages

Mi grows up in a dysfunctional environment in northern Jämtland. In the forest she comes into contact with nature spirits and she listens to the elders who put things into a larger context.

Her hunger for answers drives her out into the world, to Native people who understand the intelligence of nature. She gains knowledge about how she can help unite a world in need of more healing. In Florence, she meets Leon, a master who sees her talent and initiates her into alchemy. Together they discover that gold has healing powers. All this before her hell begins...

To get back to the person she wants to be, she needs to go through and embrace the darkness and face the essence of loneliness. Her challenge will be to find the pieces of the puzzle to begin building a new structure.

"Mi knew that when she allowed others to control her life, she had not only lost her power and forgotten herself, but she had also lost these cyclical processes that were made up of spiritual structures."

"She was paralyzed by knowing that she was constantly involved in something that could harm the next generation of children."
