'A sensuous celebration of Irish nature.' MANCHAN MAGAN

'A joyful reminder that there are still wonders to be found in Ireland wherever we give nature an inch to flourish'

IRISH INDEPENDENT

Wild Embrace is about cultivating curiosity and awe in nature, in a time of eco-anxiety and overwhelm. As ecologist Anja Murray opens our eyes to the hidden bounty of the land, sea and sky around us, we head out on a unique journey through the Irish landscape.

She explores the joy of foraging, the marvels of Irish birds, the roles of our native trees in environmental regeneration, nature at night and in the city, and much more ? including fascinating insights into our ecological past.

With beautiful illustrations by Jane Carkill, Wild Embrace awakens our senses to everyday environmental wonders within reach.
