The 2nd edition of Time and the Tree has just been published by Imbolc Books with a gorgeous new cover and interior artwork.

Darkly funny and deceptively simple, Time and the Tree offers a unique perspective on the challenges contemporary life presents. It considers the passage of time and the quest for happiness, as an unlikely cast grapple with choices and grope towards self-knowledge in a world where compassion is interwoven with menace. Lyrical, and ultimately hopeful, it has the hallmark of a modern-day classic.
