Download Becoming Animal: An Earthly Cosmology AudioBook Free
As the weather veers toward catastrophe, the innumerable deficits cascading through the biosphere make vividly visible the need for a metamorphosis in our relation to the living land. For too much time we've inured ourselves to the untamed intelligence of our own muscled flesh, taking our main truths from technology that hold the living world far away. This audiobook subverts that distance, pulling listeners ever more deeply into their creature senses to be able to explore, from within, the elemental kinship between your body and the respiration Earth. The shapeshifting of ravens, the erotic nature of gravity, the eloquence of thunder, the pleasures to be edible: all have their place in Abram's analysis. He demonstrates from the awakened point of view of the human being animal, consciousness (or brain) is no exclusive possession of our kinds but a lucid quality of the biosphere itself - a quality where we, along with the oaks and the spiders, continuously participate. Together with the audacity of its vision and the luminosity of its prose, Becoming Canine sets a new standard for the human being appraisal of our own place in the whole.
