'Like a master of alchemy--the ancient occult science that forms the vital core of The Chymical Wedding--Lindsay Clarke creates in this extraordinary novel a luminous amalgam of raw elements: passion, obsession, and mystery. In two tales of six people--three in the past, three in the present--whose lives are separated by more than a century, but whose fates reach across time toward each other, and toward certain collision.'
