You are bidding on Watch the Northwind Rise (AKA Seven Days in New Crete) by poet, historical novelist,and scholar of mythology Robert Graves, author of The White Goddess
Graves has summoned his superb narrative powers, his painstaking scholarship, his wit and unsurpassed ability to recreate the past, to produce a kind of Utopian novel reminiscent of Looking Backwards but with an erotic sub-text and as thought-provoking as Huxley's Brave New World
Book is a previously read paperback.

Watch the Northwind Rise – 1949, Avon Books 1969. 3rd printing.

A poet finds himself transported to a distant future and a new civilization, whose hosts, experts in primitive magic and most of them beautiful, inform him that the Late-Christian epoch ended long ago; and that on a theory that mankind must either retrace its steps or perish, experimental colonies were set up, the inhabitants of which were limited to the tools and practices of earlier ages and developed a neo-archaic social system of their own, based on Goddess worship.
