STA
the Book (online)
What if we could see the world afresh?
if we could relate to it directly, rather than through media or social conventions (or, for that matter, books and websites like this)?
These are some of the questions asked in STA.
The answers suggest that this simple approach can give us a radical but positive new view of our surroundings. But you mustn’t take our, or anyone else’s, word for it. You’ll need to look for yourself.
STA was first published as a book in a tiny edition of 36 copies. Now it is republished here online, where it can be more widely and freely accessible. Two short chapters of about 1500 words each will be issued weekly from October 2022 until March 2023. You can read from start to finish, or just dip here and there, treating it like a Cabinet of Curiosities.

About the author:
I doubt that author biographies are very helpful. But, for what it’s worth, he is called Gareth Howell-Jones and lives in Radnorshire, where he earns a living designing gardens and running the Hay Festival Bookshop. He has also written a short book of essays Do Not Call the Tortoise.
