The Promise of Air By Algernon Blackwood THE PROMISE OF AIR "The Promise of the Air ran through him like a strain of glad spring music. Man, he felt sure again, was a cosmic, not only a planetary, being. He could know the stars. The real self was of air....The Kingdom of Air is within us..." Joseph Wimble is a vague sort of fellow, placid of temperament, indifferent to most things. His one passion is birds. So when he meets Joan, their courtship and marriage is at first full of air and fancy, and they take flight with it. But after Tom is born, and a daughter soon after, Joan comes back to Earth. But Joseph never does. His daughter, whom they also name Joan, is a creature of the air like he, and together they create their own language. Together they spread their wings and soar with the possibilities.
