This is the third volume of sopolyrimu (songs, poems, lyrics for music) to appear in print. They continue to be enthusiastically received internationally, and in August 2009 Marcus started moving around the world giving reading performances of the work, a process that hopefully will not stop. Seven volumes of sopolyrimu have been completed, with one hundred in each volume. "If these has been released over the author's lifetime he would have be...

Out of Nowhere" by Marcus Cornelius: Readers' Comments "The book is one of the very best music books I've ever read ... an outstanding piece of jazz literature. Congratulations!" Roland Baggenaes, Denmark (June 2002) "It has the serenity of complex and perfect harmony." Philippe Paschel, France (December 2003) "Just finished reading this fascinating, compelling, and, at times, deeply moving work by Marcus M. Cornelius. It's not quite like any ...

Book 1 (Plough) followed an exiled individual's search for inner coherence in an incoherent and violent world more than 1000 years ago. Book 2 (Growth) witnessed the establishment of a sustainable harmony between a community and the land upon which they had lived for three or four centuries but within and beyond which community were the seeds of its own decay. Book 3 (Harvest) shows a far more developed and structured society, which comprises ...

Twinkling is an autobiography with a difference: it is not mainly an account of the outer life of a person. It reveals the emergence of the increasing influence of the inner self, and does so much as an image is revealed when a photo is being slowly developed, which image, necessarily, at the start of the process is barely visible.

It has sustained life all through the evolution of society along its banks and down through the centuries during the events of Book 2 (Growth) and Book 3 (Harvest), but by the time of Book 4 (Snow) the conscious connection between society and the river has almost been lost. According to legend, at one point the river split into two streams, one fe...

Note for Note Book 5 (Scatter) sees the river finally reach the ocean, roughly one thousand years after the events of Book 1 (Plough). It is the modern era in which people move at increasing speed and with increasing sophistication and increasing brutality, but essentially make the same choices as their ancestors did, although the context is absolutely different. There is a global transfer of goods, of culture and of those displaced and seekin...

In this daring exploration of primeval consciousness Marcus Cornelius has seemingly managed to convey the unknowable. In an achievement of literary genius he has given extraordinary expression to an inchoate time before history. The inspired prose flows with a richly dense imagery containing astonishingly eloquent passages that are demanding and uncompromising. One finishes Plough enlightened and changed, led to the deepest reaches of the psyc...

The sopolyrimu (songs, poems and lyrics for music) are inspired by the fragility of the human predicament, the struggle to maintain a meaningful integrity and lightness of spirit, the exquisite fineness of being alive, and the visions of the world (inner and outer) one is obliged to look at or be affected by. Equally, the sopolyrimu arise from the search for love, the experience of love and the loss of love. They are written to celebrate the j...
