An unapologetic look at history and the oppression that civilizations spread as they grew, and how those things still resonate and harm us today. We must live in harmony with not only nature but each other if we are to stop harming ourselves.

This is not a superficial book - at least for me. I found that I had to stop frequently and give myself time to think about and absorb the ideas presented. It is however beautifully and thoughtfully written. It deals with humankind's separation from the essential energies and truths of the natural world around us and how we need to reconnect with those in order to bring full meaning and balance into our lives. It discusses strategies and approaches for making these essential reconnections. You will especially gain value and enjoyment from this book if you are interested in metaphysical or "new age" philosophies.
Thank you to Net Galley and the publisher for providing an ARC for my honest review.

A very interesting book on the spirits of Nature, Genius Loci and archetypes. A travel that gives food for thought about reconnecting to the world around us and ancestral root of where we are living.
Many thanks to Netgalley and John Hunt Publishing
