Episode 47 - Jay Griffiths - Why Rebel

“The truth of it seems to me that it’s not that the more than human world is something which some people have a particular affinity for and other people don’t, we all do. It’s something from childhood. Children adore animals, they dream of animals so often. Their sense of curiosity and comfort is often from animals. Their companions are very often from the more than human world. I think, in a sense that maybe that’s part of the clue to why so many people lose it, is because it’s treated as if it’s something that we grow out of. As if we move from that, living beautiful, welling-up word, of zest, of spirit, of vitality, as if we move out of that, into this concrete enclosed world and that is what growing up is about and that is what this so called real world is about.” Jay Griffiths is a courageous and award winning writer and author. Her writing feels crucially important to these times we are living in. Along with her books including, Why Rebel, Wild: An Elemental Journey and Kith: The Riddle of the Childscape, she also writes for The Guardian, The Idler and Orion Magazine. Jay is a fierce advocate for wild places, the landscapes we belong to and our relationship to the more than human world.
