The Witch

Ragnar Paul, a lonely and unappreciated writer, finds himself in a circle of people through whom he learns about a mysterious house in the hills of Sussex. There lives Urd Noeth – a woman perceived by those around her as a witch and a mediator between different levels of existence. The invitation to her home becomes not an adventure in the usual sense for the hero, but a step towards an experience related to the soul, otherness, and the possibility of seeing the world differently. The book unfolds leisurely, with attention to the human condition, the premonition of change, and the very boundary between the everyday and the mysterious.
