‘Grail’ by John Constable

‘Grail’ is now available at Labyrinth Books in Glastonbury High Street. In London it’s available from  Treadwell’s Books. If neither of those options work for you, you can get a copy directly from the author (£12.99 plus postage if applicable). Please contact John via the contact page on this site.

The Southwark Mysteries, the book received from The Goose which inspired the works at Crossbones is also available via those outlets.

‘This book could be titled The Glastonbury Mysteries, as counterpart to the author’s celebrated The Southwark Mysteries. It shows what happens when an accomplished poet, ritualist and dramatist gives his attention of England’s most visionary contemporary community. In one respect it is a deeply affectionate and perceptive look at esoteric Glastonbury at a particular moment in time. In another, it is a generous exemplar of that meeting of different spiritual traditions, in harmonious juxtaposition and conversation, which is the greatest current achievement of the place. It should be an enduring contribution to the literature of Avalon, the more so in that Constable always keeps his feet as dependably on the ground as his head is in the clouds. Like his muse the Goose Woman, he is a being equally of earth and fire.’
(Professor Ronald Hutton)

‘One of the best books on magic I’ve ever read.’
