Format: Paperback 

"The future of thinking, human or artificial, will be decided by what the planet can afford. The planet sets the boundary, not the machine." Amy Woodward in 'What Does AI Cost the Earth, and What Does It Have To Say About It?' 

 

Our Wilderness publication considers the many meanings of 'wilderness' across time and culture. Rather than presenting the wild as something untouched, we approach it as contested, constructed, embodied, and continually redefined.

The collection moves beyond mere scenic appreciation to interrogate the fetishisation of the wild, featuring essays on indigenous river stories and the environmental impact of modern technology, including a timely look at the ecological costs of artificial intelligence. Readers are invited to "read the landscape" through the eyes of classic authors like Flannery O’Connor and Daphne du Maurier, while navigating the visceral intersections of human bodies and the unruly natural world. From the silent specimens of natural history to the contemplative poetry of the Cotswolds and the Welsh countryside, the issue curates a diverse dialogue between past and present. We close by considering how wilderness persists—or fails to—within modern life, shaped by environmental crisis, technological expansion, and the evolving ethical responsibility we hold as inhabitants of this land. Guided by the editorial vision of Heidi Kewin and enriched by a collective of naturalists, philosophers, and award-winning poets, this issue serves as both a beautiful aesthetic artifact and a rigorous ethical inquiry into our place on Earth.

INTRODUCTION

A letter from the editor to plant the seeds of this issue.

THE OXYMORONIC CURRENT THAT CONNECTS US ALL

What—besides water—do rivers carry? And what happens to us when we lose our connection to them?

JAMAICA KINCAID'S GARDEN

A garden in Vermont becomes a radical lens for rethinking empire, identity, and the myths of Caribbean nature in My Garden (Book).

WHY IT'S NO SURPRISE THAT KAFKA WAS A VEGETARIAN

Franz Kafka was a man of many beliefs, and among them was his lesser-known, personal commitment to vegetarianism.

WHAT DOES AI COST THE EARTH, AND WHAT DOES IT HAVE TO SAY ABOUT IT?

AI feels instant and weightless—but behind every prompt lie hidden environmental costs.

Gathering Wild Things

Foraging, for Louis Gilroy, is method rather than moment. He reads the landscape as he goes, picking out what’s ready and leaving the rest. He fills his basket and carries on.
