Words Are Eagles: Selected Writings on the Nature & Language of Place gathers Gregory Day’s beautiful and moving essays on the wonders of the natural world and the cultural complexities of writing landscape in Australia into one place.
Words Are Eagles sings with the heightened sense of place and natural world literacy that has long been key to Day’s work. Listening out always for the lost mythologies and languages of place, he tunes his attention to key motifs of ground and sky, ocean and owl, moth and river, while reading and celebrating the work of the resurgent global nature writing movement that has grown up since the publication of his first novel, The Patron Saint of Eels, in 2005.
Words Are Eagles entails the kind of nature writing that lies at the heart of what is now our urgent human need to fashion a more harmonious and regenerative relationship with the earth that sustains us.
