When Jenny Chapman meets Apu, a Peruvian shaman rooted in Andean tradition, she is drawn into a pilgrimage across South and Central America that becomes both an outer journey and the beginning of an inner reorganisation.

Travelling from the mountains of Argentina to the ceremonial landscapes of Mexico, she encounters places where geography, mythology, ceremony, and cultural memory converge. Each landscape offers a different way of understanding relationship: between people and place, history and identity, the visible and the symbolic.

As the journey unfolds, external landscape and internal experience begin to mirror one another. Encounters with ritual, story, and indigenous knowledge invite new questions about perception, memory, and meaning that continue to unfold long after the pilgrimage ends.

Rather than presenting transformation as a single moment, Two White Feathers and a Handful of Rocks traces the beginning of a much longer process—one in which lived experience, landscape, and symbolic systems gradually reshape how reality is understood.

The first book in a five-volume series, it marks the opening chapter of an inquiry that ultimately leads from sacred landscapes to the hidden patterns of memory, ancestry, and pre-verbal trauma.
