WINNER OF THE ORION BOOK AWARD Part travelogue, part manifesto for wildness as an essential character of life, Wild is a oneofakind book from a oneofakind authorUndefinable, untameable, profound and extraordinary ObserverA masterpiece Maria PopovaI took seven years over this work, spent all I had, my time, money and energy. Part of the journey was a green riot and part a deathly bleakness. I got ill, I got well. I went to the freedom fighters of West Papua and sang my head off in their highlands. I met cannibals infinitely kinder and more trustworthy than the murderous missionaries who evangelize them. I found a paradox of wildness in the glinting softness of its charisma, for what is savage is in the deepest sense gentle and what is wild is kind. In the end a strangely sweet result I came back to a wild home.Wild describes an extraordinary odyssey, courageous and sometimes dangerous. It is by turns funny, touching and harrowing, and offers a poetic consideration of the tender connection between human society and wildlands. Easily the best travel book that I have read in the last ten years GuardianWild is like nothing else Ive ever read thrilling, troubling, frightening, exhilarating. This is a truly necessary book, and we are all lucky that the subject found a writer worthy of it Philip PullmanPassionate, rigorous and utterly honest, Griffithss remarkable book is written in a style as wild and exciting as its subject Robert Macfarlane
