THE PIED CROW PROPHET

About the Book

This is the inspiring tale of an alternative way to view life. The author narrates as he is guided by a Pied Crow through the African bush in search of wisdom in the form of ancient writings. He is fortuitously introduced to the crow whist on sabbatical in the quiet space of nature. He allows himself to be led by the crow to a variety of locations where cryptic verses are written and corresponding interpretations found. Each verse presents thought provoking ideas on aspects of life. All of them have a common thread – to enlighten the reader to see their existence in human form from a completely new and inspiring perspective. The crow takes him on a journey of personal exploration as he is joined by other animals on his travels who help him to discover the hidden treasures of ancient wisdom which still apply today. The symbolic meaning of the crow is revealed in the end and the reader is inspired to begin a new life as part of the creation of everything.
