Set in rustic folklore, the story is a kind of anthropological baptism in the harsh realities of life as seen through the eyes of the ultimate outsider - a quintessential forest "sprite," - a feral thing who knows only her solitary, idyllic existence until the wider world begins to destroy everything she ever held sacred.Forced out of her seclusion, Baggily desperately ventures into a world of "others," rife with greed, vulgarity and spite, in an attempt to protect the bliss of her secret life. Yet through her physical journey to save her Wood, she becomes ever changed in heart and mind, and is eventually faced with unforeseen and gut-wrenching personal dilemmas; Even if she succeeds, what then? Should she return to her past or accept a new future? Where does she belong in this world? Who is she?Who are we? Where do we belong? These are primal questions. And through her asking these things, the book examines other issues; the coming of age, spirituality and faith, our environment, love and rejection, the feeling of being different, and the power of being positive. And from a stylistic standpoint, being an audiophile and coming from a music background, I wrote Baggily not just as a prosaic and philosophical endeavor, but also, a lyrical and ambient one, whose tone resonates.
