A Book Lover's Guide to the Zodiac marries astrology and literature by connecting both writers and fictional characters to the twelve different star signs and their particular traits.
Astrology and literature have so much in common: our star signs help us to understand ourselves, our motivations and our behaviour, whilst reading enables us to make sense of the world, our own characters and those around us. Read how the passionate and overly idealistic Madame Bovary from Flaubert's masterpiece exhibits all the traits of a Gemini, whilst the unconventional Virginia Woolf and Lewis Carroll, with his groundbreaking stories, are typical Aquarians.
With a chapter devoted to each star sign, and featuring entertaining extracts and poetry by classic writers, there's much to learn and entertain here about books, poetry and astrology, guided by Charlie Castelletti's witty and expert commentary running through the book.
Designed to appeal to the book lover, the Macmillan Collector's Library is a series of beautifully bound pocket-sized gift editions of much loved classic titles. Bound in real cloth, printed on high quality paper, and featuring ribbon markers and gilt edges, Macmillan Collector's Library are books to love and treasure.
A Book Lover's Guide to the Zodiac by Charlie Castelletti is an enchanting exploration that blends the worlds of astrology and literature into a fascinating journey. This unique work invites readers to discover how the personalities and qualities of the twelve zodiac signs resonate with both famous authors and fictional characters, revealing deeper insights into their creative spirits and narrative roles.
Each chapter is dedicated to a specific star sign, showcasing a carefully curated selection of literary figures and characters whose traits reflect the essence of that zodiac. From the bold and adventurous Aries to the sensitive and intuitive Pisces, the book offers a compelling look at how the stars can illuminate the complexities of human nature as portrayed in literature.
Through engaging commentary, entertaining excerpts, and thoughtful analysis, Castelletti connects the dots between astrological archetypes and the timeless stories and poetry that have shaped readers’ imaginations for centuries. The guide not only deepens appreciation for beloved texts but also offers a fresh lens through which to understand the interplay between personality, creativity, and fate.
Perfect for book enthusiasts and astrology fans alike, this guide serves as both an informative reference and an enjoyable read, enriching one’s literary experience by uncovering the cosmic connections hidden within classic and modern works.
