“Even stars could be trapped.”
Margaret Meyer, The Witching Tide

“The water was mute and grey and very still. From the width of it a big orange sun was crowning, burning away the mist.”
Margaret Meyer, The Witching Tide

“A knowledge nudged and nudged again, like an insect battering at a flame. She could feel it arriving even as she tried to hold it at bay. Some evil must have found its way into his mother’s bride bed. He must have been cursed, to be born so ill-formed. Her bowels writhed. How dreadful it was, how unworthy, to harbour this singular terror—primitive, ancient—that among them, these women, her friends, there could be a witch. The thought spread, consuming, eclipsing all things of grace in the world, dawn light on a pearly sea, the various golds of an autumn harvest, the miracle of a newborn, the kindness of neighbours. Which of them was it? Which?”
Margaret Meyer, The Witching Tide
