I have been building my own library since I was a teenager in the 1980's. The list of "to acquire" books is still large and growing, but now, sir, it has grown exponentially due to you. I am much obliged for that.
I hope you find solace from the heat.
Yours, from airconditioned Florida.

I can no longer maintain a significant distance between the natural and the supernatural,between the holy and the profane.
great review love your videos
Richard Rohr is an arch-heretic. Christ consciousness is heresy of the most extreme and blatant kind.
Malcolm, so great to hear and see you again. To hear your voice again, brings a smile to my heart, thank you ♥️
You need some WD40 on that door hinge Dr Guite, or you maybe trapped in that room with your fine library of books, forever!
I enjoy how you almost gloss over the rhyming elements to better define the imagery and carry forward the momentum and the musick.
Thanks a lot sir for this amazing presentation.
Thank you for that. A discovery for me. I'm going to look into it.
Hi Michael what is your most rarest or most valuable book that you own?
Thank you for this! Dr. Parker's book won't be published in the States until December, so it's definitely going on my Christmas list.
Hope you enjoy it!
Wow ... great book ! I'd probably enjoy listening to you read an instruction manual though Mr Malcolm! Lol ... great piping as well , love those peterson pipes myself ! Good health to you sir
What a wonderful video!
What a wonderful channel
How serendipitous, I was sing of phoenixes just last week! Please accept my sincere apologies on behalf of my great (several more greats) grandfather William I, for the senseless attempt at destruction of the Anglo-Saxon culture. Thankyou for sharing this fabulous book with us, and hope you find some respite from the heat.
thanks, nice to hear from you again!
Thank you brother, for sharing this!!!!
It's Digory who sees the Phoenix 🙂When he realizes it's there he is glad he didn't steal the apple. Polly waits outside the garden.
Enchanting thank you for sharing this beautiful book 🙏🏻☀️
As always a delight. Hope the heat eases up. Here in Kenya it is rather cold …not least since we are close to the equator. It was also cold in South Africa where I was until recently. ‘Weather out of joint’.
Beautiful, wonderful poetry and prose! And the seamlessness of natural to supernatural...we have, sadly, largely lost. The wonder of both worlds are to be enjoyed and lived together.
That was refreshing, thank you. I'm reminded in this heat that 'Other echoes inhabit the garden...'
Spiritual woven with the physical world. The Creator left His fingerprints everywhere. "Earth's crammed with heaven, and every common bush afire with God..." (Not sure if that is what RB meant, but it's how I read it.:)
Your stories are simply marvelous. I greatly enjoy the quiet strength of them. I also wanted to thank you for appearing on the pipesmagazine radio show. The people over there thought it was a most charming show.
Thank you. Another great book for my library. I really appreciate these videos. Thank you for making them. 30 minutes ago, read Paul Kingsnorth's essay "In the Black Chamber". It ties into what the Anglo - Saxons did - we are not rational beings, we are emotional, spiritual, earthly beings. I feel like God is sending me a message. Thank you for being a messenger.
Thank you for another wonderful video!
The observation of the Cartesian split is an interesting one: according to Humphrey Carpenter'a account in the inklings, Charles Williams almost seemed to transcend that spilt, seeing London as a magical place. It reminds me of a writer called Arthur Machen: have you ever heard of him?
This isn't the exact quote i was thinking of, but it illustrates a similar theme that runs through his work:
"But so went forth Darnell, day by day, strangely mistaking death for life, madness for sanity, and purposeless and wandering phantoms for true beings. He was sincerely of opinion that he was a City clerk, living in Shephard’s Bush - having forgotten the mysteries and the far-shining glories of the kingdom which was his by legitimate inheritance. "
yes I've come across Machen but I've never read any of his books
If you ever get a chance, read 'a fragment of life'. Also, if you're A fan if Hitchcock, try reading 'the coming of the terror'.
I am sorry to hear that you all are having a heat wave. Do you not have AC?
no most English houses have no AC
We don't need it
