apocalypse. This nutty journey forces her to face conflicts she'd
previously chosen to ignore, including the seedy side of her career
at agribusiness giant, Malsapo, Inc. and the neglect of her true
passion, music. Music, spirituality, and an apothecary teach her
transmutation, leading her from a drab gray existence to an
incandescent engagement with life. Also includes glossary of
medicinal herbs, gardening, self-sufficiency tips, and an attempt
to solve the unified field theory, also known as the Theory of
Everything.

Haunted Landscapes offers a fresh and innovative approach to
contemporary debates about landscape and the supernatural.
Landscapes are often uncanny spaces embroiled in the past;
associated with absence, memory and nostalgia. Yet experiences of
haunting must in some way always belong to the present: they must
be felt. This collection of essays opens up new and compelling
areas of debate around the concepts of haunting, affect and
landscape. Landscape studies, supernatural studies, haunting and
memory are all rapidly growing fields of enquiry and this book
synthesises ideas from several critical approaches - spectral,
affective and spatial - to provide a new route into these subjects.
Examining urban and rural landscapes, haunted domestic spaces,
landscapes of trauma, and borderlands, this collection of essays is
designed to cross disciplines and combine seemingly disparate
academic approaches under the coherent locus of landscape and
haunting. Presenting a timely intervention in some of the most
pressing scholarly debates of our time, Haunted Landscapes offers
an attractive array of essays that cover topics from Victorian
times to the present.
