INHERIT THE DAMSELFLY

About the Book

The future inherits the past in this literary account of Sidney Marsh, a naturalist whose life exposes the popular insults to global environmental health from her seat in rural north central Florida. Neither a cruel nor comedic attack on the growing condition of wild landscapes, it is the story of universal cadence and measure through a young woman´s personal exploration, advances of reason, and consent to intimacy. Parallels that exist among living things are evident with every rise of the sun and descent of the moon and science bears its influence on all aspects of environmental health. The author narrates as Sidney reflects upon and diligently performs the duties of an ancestral philosophy urging that wild lands are sustainable only through a joining of inheritance and preservation. As the earth suffers unsolicited human engagements and perpetual renewal sparks evolutionary change, the variant Damselfly is born, as is love between this well-founded, impassioned woman and one well-grounded, enchanting man, a relationship best described as felicitous and exceedingly rare. Inherit the Damselfly is destined to find its market among the sensitive, intelligent and artistic of modern society. Every aspect of this story represents a larger reality and loftier ideals. It travels the quintessential path to enlightenment via inheritance of and dedication to all manner of truth.

About the Author

Kay C. Meredith resides with her husband in a delightfully small town which local historians regard as a former large lake basin. Their home exists among the sink holes, crystal springs and remaining core of ancient live oaks of rural, north central Florida. Meredith's youthful essence was formed when communing with nature was more than a symbolic gesture. Her messages tout the regenerating effects of starlight, raindrops, and the color green.
