Welcome

“It will not go out of my mind that if we pass this post and lantern, either we shall find strange adventures or else some great changes of our fortunes.” – Lucy Pevensie1

Like the stone mounds with which people have marked landscapes for thousands of years, these cairns mark mysterious points and paths of human interest. They come always from matters that surface or settle in the divinatory whir of dialogue and silence at Perelandra Bookshop. They mean to be your stout, unbounded companions in sentience.
