Stories and myth are part of a culture. And suppression of a culture is not only the loss of a tradition, it is also a decay of a unique, vibrant and different society. Which makes this book unique.
It is a memoir of a family which traditionally deals in magic, myth, and surrealism. A modern mind may not accept the magic of supernatural events but that doesn't make such events any less beautiful for someone who sees them as a second nature.
This books sounds a lot of quackery but the deeper meaning is how we look at our own life, past and present, from an outsider's perspective. How we connect our life events with the lives of others which gives us a sense of connection with this world.
It is not a vey recommended read but it does give you some perspective of life. Even if you don't believe in magic.
Love
