‘A church is a sort of wood. A wood is a sort of church. They’re the same thing really.’

Nineteen-year-old Merowdis Scot is an unusual girl. She can talk to animals and trees—and she is only ever happy when she is walking in the woods.

One snowy afternoon, out with her dogs and Apple the pig, Merowdis encounters a blackbird and a fox. As darkness falls, a strange figure enters in their midst—and the path of her life is changed forever.

I don’t know what this was

A cool vibe and stuff, but I don’t think I have the background to at all understand what I just listened to… lol

Imaginative

Language imagery and legend all beautiful in a fairy tale worldview. Unique and emotionally true, for animal and nature lovers.

Strange and beautiful

Strange and beautiful. The setting was a character, which, as usual, made for a creepier setting (in an intended, good way)
