We were very much inspired by this DVD, which shows a presentation by Leonid Sharashkin, editor of the English language version of the Anastasia books (all nine of which are still available from Cygnus). Leonid describes how these books have stimulated a massive 'back to the land' movement in Russia, with the Russian people in their own gardens producing no less than 53% of the nation's food! Leonid also passes on some fascinating details about the Russian language, in which the Anastasia books were originally written. He explains how the subtleties and nuances of the Russian language still convey, even today, an ancient way of living in reverence and connection rather than conflict with our world. He reveals Anastasia not simply as a woman of the forest, but also as a symbol of resurrection, as we reawaken to the old ways of living. This DVD will inspire you to turn your own plot of land, however small, into your very own 'kin's domain', a space of love for you and your family where you can experience all the nurture and abundance our mother Earth seeks to offer us.
