Perfect for those looking to escape busy modern lives and reconnect with themselves, other cultures and the natural world, this subscription sends eight books over a year, two books per season, and includes invitations to our online gatherings and author conversations.
Our current season features a pair of books that insulate against the coming cold with myth and mystery:
Smoke Hole; Looking to the Wild in the Time of the Spyglass by Martin Shaw - an invitation and a passionate call to arms to use these stories to face the complexities of contemporary life, from fake news, parenthood, climate crises, addictive technology and more.
Martin has a magical way of sneaking you up behind the monstrous issues of the moment.
Amy-Jane Beer's The Flow: Rivers, Water and Wildness - a visit to the rapid where she lost a cherished friend reignites Amy-Jane Beer's love of rivers setting her on a journey of natural, cultural and emotional discovery.
Like water, The Flow meanders, cascades and percolates through many lives, landscapes and stories. From West Country torrents to Levels and Fens, rocky Welsh canyons, the salmon highways of Scotland and the chalk rivers of the Yorkshire Wolds, Amy-Jane follows springs, streams and rivers to explore tributary themes of wildness and wonder, loss and healing, mythology and history, cyclicity and transformation.
This annual subscription includes all the books and flexibility of our quarterly subscription, for a lower annual cost.
You can skip upcoming orders at any time and manage your subscription via your personal account portal and reminder emails before each order.
