Celtic Myths: the illustrated book

In the heart of the Emerald Island, cloaked under a veil of fog, we can hear the Fairy Folk singing enchanting tales. The echoes of this melody reach us, showing magical clearings and ancestral stone circles, arcane keepers of ancient stories. Alberto Orso's illustrations and Mila Fois' tales intertwine, creating the typical Celtic knots that frame the pages of the manuscripts that preserved the stories of heroes and gods through the centuries.

1. Written by Psychotherapist Lori Gottlieb who was used to being the therapist in the room until the script was flipped and she went through a crisis that led to her being the recipient of therapy.

2. Instead of being written in the typical fashion of a self help book, it’s written as a memoir.

3. She shares her experience as both the therapist and the client, with dashes of humour in between to lighten things up.
