Fortune’s Lover: A Book of Tarot Poems

The Early Renaissance game of Tarot inspired poetry centuries before it was used for fortune telling. The poems in Fortune's Lover do not explain the Tarot so much as spinoff from it.
From accounts of a master class on the Fool that led to the author inadvertently putting into practice the grace they'd just learned about to an insane Merlin predicting three forms of death for the same boy, from a princess who learns never to look to any man to protect or fight for her to a High Priestess locked in her temple of silence, these poems are infused with a wisdom based not so much in finding the right answers as in asking the right questions.
