West is a captivating blend of personal memoir and cultural history, delving into the captivating landscape of the western Midlands of England. It serves as a treasure trove of tales, weaving together a rich tapestry of anecdotes, folk legends, ghost stories, and fairy tales. But it extends beyond mere entertainment, serving as a poignant record of a land and its people, spanning over 2,000 years of history. Author Martin Wall, a native of the region, embarks on a nostalgic journey through the Lost Lands of the West, exploring the profound energies that have shaped both his literature and his own life. With a wistful tone, sometimes tender, sometimes raw, these tales invite readers to immerse themselves in the past, present, and future, breaking free from the constraints of time.
The author laments the decline and fall of a succession of cultures, from the Celtic principality of Pengwern and the mighty kingdom of Mercia to the closure of heavy industry in the late twentieth century. West, with a thoughtful foreword by Robert Plant, takes history to a new imaginative realm, offering a fresh perspective on the past and inspiring readers to contemplate the possibilities of the future.
