Foxfire, Wolfskin and Other Stories of Shapeshifting Women

De: Dr Sharon Blackie

Narrado por: Vinette Robinson, Claire Morgan, Gillian Hay, Eilidh Beaton, Shelley Atkinson, Melanie McHugh

Charged with drama and beauty, this memorable collection by a master storyteller weaves a magical world of possibility and power from female myths of physical renewal, creation and change. It is an extraordinary immersion into the bodies and voices, mindscapes and landscapes, of the shapeshifting women of our native folklore.

Drawing on myth and fairy tales found across Europe from Croatia to Sweden, Ireland to Russia, Sharon Blackie brings to life women's remarkable ability to transform themselves in the face of seemingly impossible circumstances. These stories are about coming to terms with our animal natures, exploring the ways in which we might renegotiate our fractured relationship with the natural world and uncovering the wildness and wilderness within.

"A deeply evocative and haunting collection... Part rally cry, part warning, part manifesto and all parts enchanting, Sharon Blackie's Foxfire, Wolfskin is a deeply evocative and haunting collection. I want to press this powerful book into the hands of everyone I know and say listen." (Holly Ringland, author of The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart)

Very interesting

I really feel the set of notes are amazing and wish I had read them first. Each short story is completely different ... archetypal and wild

Just what I needed!

Great stories Wonderfully performed! The characters all had their own voice and accent. I warmed to the stories a little more with each one.

Magick!

One of the best folk story books I've ever read. Thank you Sharon Blackie for the delightful journey into the realm of magickal woman.
