Title: Fabulous Angels
Review: Angels as creatures of the imagination, of belief; as anthropomorphisms of our collective unconscious; as entities which give shape to our lives, which help us to understand the incomprehensible - such is the approach of Gossamer Penwyche in The World of Angels.Ms. Penwyche describes their provenance, their metamorphoses through time and cultures. She `fleshes' them out in fantastic stories framed in fact.As in her previous exploration, The World of Fairiesshe offers a delightful insight into the phenomenon of Angels and draws interest from the Bible, the Quran, and the religions that they inspired. Buddhism, Judaism, Zoroastrianism, Paganism too are shown to have their angelic features.I would highly recommend The World of Angels.It is well written, evocatively illustrated, wonderfully researched.
