"In contemplating some of life's deepest mysteries, it tells a story that is hopeful, honest and necessary." - Declan Kiberd

★ Entrancing - The Irish Times ★ A masterpiece - San Francisco Book Review

A multi-award-winning philosophical novel set in a fairy-tale forest, filled with wry humor and wisdom.

This magical fable, told over four seasons, delves into the human predicament. Its beautiful, and at times heart-breaking, meditation on birth and death, and all that lies between, offers a unique insight into the challenges life presents. From the pursuit of happiness to the nature of time, it examines the fundamental questions that plague our time-junkie generation.

Darkly funny and deceptively simple, Time and the Tree draws the reader on a surreal journey, where a group of unlikely characters grapple with choices and grope towards self-knowledge in a world where compassion is interwoven with menace.

A visionary blend of philosophy, spirituality and magical realism, this thought-provoking story is both timeless and attuned to current philosophical conflicts. Lyrical, wise, and ultimately hopeful, it has the hallmark of a modern-day classic.

A captivating read for fans of The Alchemist, or A Wrinkle in Time. And, with its beautiful new artwork, this 2nd edition of Time and the Tree is a treat for both the eyes and the heart.
