I don’t know when Jane Goldman wrote her book, but that’s exactly what I found to be true 25 years ago: I needed help after a bad break-up but couldn’t afford therapy, so I went to see a highly recommended tarot reader, despite my firm belief it was all hokum.She made me feel much better and indeed most of what she saw in the cards has come true.
Yeah, it’s a function that might once have been fulfilled by the village wise woman, or the parish priest. It’s also something i encounter in journalism; people hold stories very close to the surface that they want — need — to share. Particularly trauma. Not being heard or believed is a fresh wound.
