From Nate MacCall's website: "My name is Nate McCall, and I am a self-taught bookbinder in Poulsbo, WA who creates fine design and historically-inspired bindings. My philosophy: Each one a work of art. This is what I strive for, and I hope that with each book I make, I bring a little more joy and beauty into this world.
About this book.
The White Dominican is Meyrink's most esoteric novel, and draws on the wisdom of a number of mystical traditions, the most important of which is Tao. It is set in a mystical version of the Bavarian town of Wassserburg which sits on a promontory surrounded on three sides by the river Inn.
The novel describes the spiritual journey of the simple hero, who, guided by a number of figures including his eccentric father, the spirit of of a distant ancestor, the protecting presence of his dead lover and the mysterious figure of the White Dominican, escapes the 'Medusa head' of the world to a transfiguration, through which he joins the 'living chain that stretches to infinity'.
