In a book written by Phoebe Marie Holmes in 1932, she mentioned another book entitled "The Wayfarer" which was written by a male author and published in England (according to Phoebe). But she never mentioned the author's name.
I haven't been able to find it in a Google search.
Does anyone know who the author of this book is?
Thanks!
There is a famous Anglo-Saxon poem of that name (also known as "The Wanderer.") Its original (or earliest known copy, at least) is in a 10th century manuscript book in the library of Exeter Cathedral.
Voices mysterious far and near,
Sound of the wind and sound of the sea,
Are calling and whispering in my ear,
Whifflingpin! Why stayest thou here?
Thanks Whifflingpin.
I'll look into it.
BTW, this piece of work is about a guy who says he has achieved physical immortality... and can also leave and enter his body at will. Very interesting! Would be a really good read.
