A Branch from the
Lightning Tree…

£13

A brilliant exploration of myth, wilderness and a life of depth and vocation. Shaw claims we are socially addicted to the act of severance and have replaced longing with disapointment.
This, in turn, creates a defence against our own beauty. With a cluster of initoatory myths, deft commentary and personal narrative of his four years in the wild, Shaw suggests a 'Culture of Wildness' is possible, indeed vital, for a restoration of soul in our lives.
