Buy the novel Faeries in America

Faeries in America, by Elizabeth Kirwin, is faery made. This contemporary novel opens in 16th Century Ireland, and quickly progresses nearly 400 years into the present day. The book tells the story of Feona the Cloud, a faery who ends up in a human body, on a karmic mission related to several past lives. She is haunted by the memory of her dead mother, and guided by her grandmother to understand the history of the faery tribe and their migrations to the land beyond the western seas. Some characters in the novel include Aaron, the cosmic twin; Dana, the mother of the faeries; Finn, the faery warrior; Queen Maeb, a mad artist; and Mannan - arisen from a past life to a life of corporate greed in America.

With the exception of the opening, which focuses on Feona’s past lives, the novel is set in a contemporary American landscape. It is written in short episodes and designed for the reader over age 14. The story is about the spiritual awakening one may have when past life stories overlap with present life occurrences.

Look for some sample audio episodes of Faeries in America, with musical accompaniment, soon.
