In this episode we set some parameters for the podcast as a whole, concerning the kinds of relationships that occultists might have with books and reading. The book under discussion concerns contemporary paranormal investigation: we consider some of the specific characteristics of the author's approach to communicating with the dead within this cultural context, and the light it casts upon possible dynamics in the relationship between the living and the dead, particularly around issues of judgment and identity, and how this might challenge or contradict mainstream assumptions.The book providing the basis for discussion in this episode is: Into the Darkness: Conversations with the Dead by Angel Rae (Fort Wayne, IN: Dark Moon Press, 2017). More information about the book, the author, and her other works is available from https://tinyurl.com/26wbe4py (amazon.com, accessed April, 2024).Support the podcast by joining my Patreon at: https://patreon.com/oeith.
