Toldja So
I just came across this a few minutes ago on Amazon while looking for something else. It is an in-depth study (apparently) of what the previous blog entry was about. Echoes of Eden resound in a variety of ways through "high" literature to various forms of pop culture. This helps explain why someone can be so enchanted with, say, the Harry Potter series as well as with the Narnia books. Homer's Iliad still has the power to move us, but so does The Avengers. Part of the reason, maybe, is that sometimes our hunger for lost paradise still punches through our imaginations.
