Trade paperback. Set in an imagined Middle Ages where belief in magic and demons is unquestioned, ‘The Devil’s Saint’ is a tale of witchcraft, superstition and intolerance. It tells the story of 16-year-old Sidonia, daughter of an alleged witch, and Gervais, son of the Lord, Count Arnold. Their passion faces seemingly insurmountable obstacles, including black magic, an evil step-mother, and blind prejudice. Dulcie Deamer, an Australian author known as the Queen of Bohemia, is almost entirely forgotten today. She was a well-known figure in the Kings Cross district of Sydney, and had a lifelong interest in ancient beliefs, black magic and nature mysticism. ‘The Devil’s Saint’ is a vivid love story, written in her unique descriptive style and containing rare occult delights. This reprint features a new biographical introduction by James Doig.
