Welcome - thelostland.com was born as a personal quest to bring together information about Susan Cooper's books and first appeared on the web several years ago. Now, with Susan Cooper's input and blessing, thelostland.com has become her official site. The site first appeared in 1997 and so this year celebrates its tenth birthday. It is an exciting year in which to be celebrating such a milestone, as this year sees the release of the film adaptation of The Dark Is Rising (though curiously re-titled 'The Seeker: The Dark Is Rising'). Expect an adaptation because it will be a loosely based on Susan's wonderful book. You can find out more about the film at ' The Seeker: The Dark Is Rising' Film Page For those of you have visited before, welcome back! If this is your first time, welcome! To mark the tenth anniversary of the site, there have been a few changes. Susan has provided some photographs from her personal collection and these can be found throughout the site. She has also provided some talks and essays for download. There are additional photographs showing the landscapes of Susan's books, and a Dark Is Rising art page with a short interview with the illustrator Michael Heslop who was responsible for the remarkable covers from the 1970s and 1980s. July 16th 2006 - this site is under (re)construction.... please check back!

var gDcsId = "dcs35t4vc10000chxa0maatv9_2u9t"; Books by Susan Cooper VICTORY THE MAGICIAN'S BOY THE DARK IS RISING Susan Cooper Children say, in letters, "Where do you get your ideas?" I think they are hoping that the author has some magical secret to reveal to them but alas, it doesn't work like that. Ideas never come when you want them; they pop up unexpectedly, sometimes at the most inconvenient moments. Ideas come out of the unconscious mind: that shadowy place in which though we don't know it we store echoes of everything we have ever seen or heard or done, every person we've met, every story we've read. In there, all these old scraps are melted together, as if in a furnace, and once in a while, if you're lucky, they fuse into something bright and astonishing. I think the process starts the day that you are born. I was born in England, in Buckinghamshire, near London. I have a younger brother called Rod (also a writer), and we were both rather shy and read a lot. When we were small, World War II was happening, and our nights were often noisy, because German planes were dropping bombs on us and the anti-aircraft guns at the end of our street were trying, generally without success, to shoot down the planes. After I grew up, I put those days into a book called DAWN OF FEAR, which is almost all true. I've been writing ever since can remember. In the year I turned ten, I wrote three plays for a puppet theatre built by the boy next door, collaborated on a weekly newspaper with the son of my piano teacher, and wrote and illustrated a very small book. The plays and newspaper were a huge hit with their captive parental audiences, and I was delighted. The book was read and praised by an uncle who found it in a drawer, and I was so appalled at its exposure that I burst into tears and tore it up.
