As our relationship with the world unravels and needs to take a new
form, The Wanton Green presents a collection of inspiring,
provoking and engaging essays by modern pagans about their own
deep, passionate and wanton relationships with the earth. "Where do
we locate the sacred? In a place, a meeting, memory, a momentary
glimpse? The Wanton Green provides no easy answers and instead,
offers a multitude of perspectives on how our relationships with
the earth, the sacred, the world through which we move are forged
and remade." Phil Hine. Contents: Foreword (Graham Harvey) ,"She

This is about animals, but not always animals to see or touch or
run away from, but animals to see with the eyes of your mind, to
feel with, for, about, to encounter in the other ways. Animals to
wonder over in the Otherworld and in this, the physical, world. The
heart of this book is a spiritual adventure into contact and
friendship with the animal world. It draws on ancient knowledge,
surviving traditions, memories of other customs and the simple
imagination that helps fill in the gaps. Hopefully, this might also
be your story. This could be the start of your story and the chance
to shape and grow your own connections with the spirits of the
animal world.
Poems exploring ancient monuments and modern landscapes from a
shamanic animist perspective. Subjects range from Neolithic tombs
to Pictish brochs, flooded quarries to faerie hills.
