BLURB The Devouring by Renie Tagliatela contains six slightly twisted tales of everyday events: after forty years, a son comes home to his family; two little boys are found at the bottom of a well, a county sheriff goes on the hunt to find who is responsible; a vengeful horse teaches his rider a valuable lesson; a scam artist relentlessly pursues an old man with unexpected results; a hospital wing experiences shadowy visitors when a stroke victim is admitted as a John Doe; and an AI seeks refuge in a small community following the collapse of modern civilization.
A fascinating, helpful exploration of the underlying principles of the ancient Chinese discipline of feng shui, with clear and useful recommendations for improving domestic and work environments, the book is grounded in classical Chinese knowledge. One of the cornerstones of the traditional Chinese holistic view of health, feng shui assesses, diagnoses and adjusts the house in relation to the person living in it. The author explains the key universal principles upon which feng shui is based, and the deep relationship between ourselves, our houses and our surroundings. She explains how a classical trained consultant would proceed analysing your house, how to think about each room in your house, and provides practical advice on what to do and what to avoid. With many real life illustrations, the book gives the reader a fundamental understanding of what classical feng shui does, and how to begin to think practically about improving life circumstances.
