A SPELL IN THE WILD - ALICE TARBUCK GEBUNDEN

'These enchanting words make the world feel less broken' - Emma Mitchell  author of The Wild
Remedy'Part-primer  part-chronicle  a fresh and personal account of a contemporary witch's year
told with lucidity and verve' - Eley Williams  author of The Liar's Dictionary'Witches occupy a
clear place in contemporary imagination. We can see them  emerging shadowy  from the corners of
the past: mad  glamorous  difficult  strange. They haunt the footnotes of history - from
medieval witches burning at the stake to the lurid glamour of the 1970s witchcraft revival. But
they are moving out of history  too. Witches are back. They're feminist  independent  invested
in self-care and care for the world. They are here  because they must be needed...'In A Spell
in the Wild  Alice Tarbuck explores what it means to be a witch today. Where 'witch' was once a
dangerous - and often deadly - accusation  it is now a proud self-definition. And as the world
becomes ever more complicated and we face ecological  political  social and global health
crises  witchcraft is experiencing a resurgence. Magic is back.Alice describes what she
practises as 'intersectional  accessible' witchcraft - it's about the magic you can find in an
overgrown snicket or a sixth floor stairwell  whatever your gender  whether you're able to
climb a mountain or can't leave the house. Month by month  Alice walks us through everyday
magic for extraordinary times. 'A Spell in the Wild is a beautiful and intimate set of
reflections on the persistence and necessity of magic  not just in our mythologies but our in
daily accommodations with the changing natural world' - Paraic O'Donnell 'The wise words in A
Spell in the Wild offer solace for our hearts and homes in a changing world. Every reader will
find themselves under her spell' - Nancy Campbell  author of The Library of Ice
