About the author
Diana Durham is a writer and poet who has been involved in the collective life of intentional community in England, the United States and Canada over the past thirty years. In the 1980's she was among a grouping who began to explore dialogue and the potential of groups to access a pool of collective intelligence with the late theoretical physicist David Bohm. These ideas are explored in her non-fction books 'The Return of King Arthur: finishing the quest for wholeness' (Tarcher/Penguin) and 'Coherent Self, Coherent World: a new synthesis of Myth, Metaphysics & Bohm's Implicate Order'. Diana is also the author of four poetry books 'Sea of Glass' published by the Diamond Press, London, 'To the End of the Night' from Northwoods Press, Maine, winner of their annual competition, 'Between Two Worlds' a collection of sonnets from Chrysalis Poetry, UK and 'Labyrinth' from Amethyst Press 2021.Her debut novel 'The Curve of the Land' is from Skylight Press. She wrote, performed and co-produced an audio-play retelling of the grail myth called 'Perceval & the Grail' which she also produced as an animated series on YouTube https://youtu.be/EGv8MiZkkFQ. She is a graduate of University College London, with a BA in English Literature; and was a Visiting Research Associate at the Women's Studies Research Center, Brandeis in 2011. Diana and her family lived for 24 years on the East Coast of the USA before returning to Britain in 2019.

Diana Durham is one of those rare people who have succeeded in balancing an incisive curiosity with the deep feeling of an empathic poet. This enables her to bring her own unique powers of perception to the deep questions of our time.
In ‘Coherent Self – Coherent World’ she uses her special talents to demonstrate that the interplay between our inner being and outer world can open a door to greater understanding of creative living and human purpose. The result is compelling! No source is seen as too unlikely to throw light on the great mystery of life, so ancient stories and designs, contemporary events, the findings of leading edge physics, and much more, all ‘hidden in plain sight’, yield up their secrets under Diana’s scrutiny. The decoding of each symbolic message brings new meaning, but also reveals others that beckon us on. Every avenue explored fuels our sense of adventure with twists in the tale that invoke awe and reverence for the beauty of Life’s design.
The individual quest for meaningful identity and Self leads inexorably, even dauntingly, to my very own seat at the ‘Round Table’ of collective endeavour, and, if I choose to sit in it, the beginning of a whole new journey together. This is a voyage upon which the family of humanity has, as yet, barely embarked. The invitation to do so, however, which is implicit in this book, comes with tantalising glimpses of our capacity to transform wasteland into wonder-land, and to know, at the level of undeniable inner experience, the truth that we are indeed ‘More than the sum of the parts’. As always, though, the choice remains with us, and never has it been more important to R S V P !
