Words Are Eagles: Selected Writings on the Nature & Language of Place gathers
Gregory Day’s beautiful and moving essays on the wonders of the natural world
and the cultural complexities of writing landscape in Australia into one place.
Words Are Eagles sings with the heightened sense of place and natural world
literacy that has long been key to Day’s work. Listening out always for the lost
mythologies and languages of place, he tunes his attention to key motifs of
ground and sky, ocean and owl, moth and river, while reading and celebrating the
work of the resurgent global nature writing movement that has grown up since the
publication of his first novel, The Patron Saint of Eels, in 2005.
Words Are Eagles entails the kind of nature writing that lies at the heart of
what is now our urgent human need to fashion a more harmonious and regenerative
relationship with the earth that sustains us.
