      There’s so much to know. It will never end, I suspect, even when it does. So much in all these lives, so many stories, even in this small place.Villages are full of tales: some are forgotten while others become a part of local folklore. But the fortunes of one West Country village are watched over and irreversibly etched into its history as an omniscient, somewhat crabby, presence keeps track of village life.In the late sixties a Californian musician blows through Underhill where he writes a set of haunting folk songs that will earn him a group of obsessive fans and a cult following. Two decades later, a couple of teenagers disturb a body on the local golf course. In 2019, a pair of lodgers discover a one-eyed rag doll hidden in the walls of their crumbling and neglected home. Connections are forged and broken across generations, but only the landscape itself can link them together. A landscape threatened by property development and superfast train corridors and speckled by the pylons whose feet have been buried across the moor.

      Sabine Linek auf den Spuren griechischer Ärzte

      Heimat finden in Griechenland, auf der Halbinsel Peloponnes, deren Schönheit die Sinne und die Seele des Menschen erhebt. Die Aura der antiken Götter, Ärzte, Heiler und Stätten erspüren und sich von ihrem Erbe inspirieren lassen. Die Heilpraktikerin Sabine Linek hat sich diesen Traum erfüllt und erzählt davon in ihrem „poetischen Album“, dem sie die Schilderung von Fällen aus ihrer Praxis anschließt: Mit der von ihr entwickelten Sanazon-Methode und bewährten Therapien verhilft sie kranken Menschen zur Gesundung - und steht damit in der Tradition von Hippokrates und Asklepios, deren Geist sie mit Ehrerbietung begegnet.
