The Wild Wood

De: Charles de Lint

Narrado por: Stacey Glemboski

Eithnie is a young painter who is acclaimed by the art world, until the critics start noticing that her work has lost the animating passion that had set her apart from the crowd. She returns to her cabin in Canada’s remote woods, hoping to find a place where she can seek solitude and focus on her art.

At first, Eithnie’s muse remains elusive, but then, beautiful and disturbing creatures start slipping into her sketches unbidden. The following days bring strange visitors bearing cryptic messages indicating that Eithnie may be bound by a promise made in a forgotten, magical childhood. The world of Faerie is clearly reaching out to her for help, and her ability to figure out what they need may mark the difference between their survival and their doom.

Excellent book

Most excellent visit into the imaginal world, de Lint is a master. A world of dreams and possibilities..

Wow! Love this book, will listen again many times!

I have read this book several times, being a huge fan of de Lint. This audio book was wonderfully performed and really brings the characters to life. Will listen to it over and over again many times.

Oh, what a find!

Made me so nostalgic for my childhood in the woods! I wish to do more!

struggled to finish

The last few chapters are great but it was very hard to get to those chapters.

The wild wood

This audio book has the romance of the fantasy books of my teenage years. it reminded me of the books I loved when I lived in Haight Ashbury in San Francisco where I would spend days in Golden Gate Park with other Hippies and nature. It made me feel like I did in the 1960's and I loved it!
