POSSIBLE SPOILERS OR RUINERS BELOW
First published in co-operation with
The Ruinians (England) Trust
by Fetish Books of Croydon 1980
More to follow below…when I read it.
This is a journey into the Ruinian Faith, and the memorials and emblems and genii-loci in this umbrella-locus. A guide not to places I visited in recent years like the national arboretum north of Birmingham nor the Painswick rococo garden, but something far more amenable to my ruined soul and rainy thoughts, and the section headings shown above in the contents give some clue as to the godsome gps of your path.
Each appliqué panel is a pareidolia or apophenia angel of angst and ruinenlust. But I anticipate calm seclusion and cloistered, unravelled thought rather than worry once you set out.
I am only showing you two of these appliqué panels as token ruiners above.

Just discovered above as a co-resonance in my previous review a few years ago of another book, a book with the same by-line.
