Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 541
The scene of this entertaining story is laid in a charming English village. The plot centres round Miss Barbara Buncle, a maiden lady who was obliged to write a book because – as she naively explained – her dividends were so poor. Unfortunately, Miss Buncle had no imagination, so she wrote about her friends – quite kindly and truthfully, of course, for she was a benevolent and veracious soul.

The narration did compensate somewhat
Revisado: 07-17-21
The narration did compensate somewhat for this otherwise ode to the domination of men over women.

Just days after Raynor learns that Moth, her husband of 32 years, is terminally ill, the couple lose their home and their livelihood. With nothing left and little time, they make the brave and impulsive decision to walk the 630 miles of the sea-swept South West Coast Path, from Somerset to Dorset, via Devon and Cornwall. They have almost no money for food or shelter and must carry only the essentials for survival on their backs as they live wild in the ancient, weathered landscape of cliffs, sea and sky.

What a beautiful book about the essence of our humanity and who we are when we dig deep

Unassuming brilliance
Revisado: 07-02-19
A troubling story told in a light hearted and deeply honest way. Inescapably everyman and yet entirely personal; an exploration of homelessness, despair and profound hope. I felt totally engrossed in the landscape and like I had just had a long conversation with an old friend who had gone through a lot. Definitely worth a listen!

With research and insight, Charles Eisenstein details how the quantification of the natural world leads to a lack of integration and our “fight” mentality. With an entire chapter unpacking the climate change denier’s point of view, he advocates for expanding our exclusive focus on carbon emissions to see the broader picture beyond our short-sighted and incomplete approach. This refocusing away from impending catastrophe and our inevitable doom cultivates meaningful emotional and psychological connections and provides real, actionable steps to caring for the Earth.

A paradigm pusher of a climate story
Revisado: 01-08-19
Charles Eisenstein presents a compelling argument for a shift in the whole foundation of the climate discourse. In media and politics the discussion is most often framed in terms of finance and economics, a weighing of fiscal gain against climate losses, a story doomed to failure as their can be no reconciliation there. Eisenstein presents powerful examples of where change does actually occur and illustrates how it comes out of individual or collective connection to place, that we react when we see the loss of habitats we have come to love and not at statistics over global temperature changes or indeed the paralysingly catastrophic rhetoric of many climate campaigns. He offers pragmatic ways in which such understandings can be translated into public policy on a local/global level. This is a broad, open and encompassing treatise that will resound with people on all sides of the 'climate debate' without diminishing in any way the depth of the crisis we currently find ourselves in.
The narrater reads as though he were the author - in the best possible sense.

An introduction to the life and work of Rudolf Steiner, a largely undiscovered genius whose work deserves to be far better known. No acquaintance is presupposed, but experienced anthroposophists also stand to gain by listening to it.

Drawing from her work as a psychoanalyst and cantadora (keeper of old stories), Dr. Estes uses myths and folktales to illustrate how societies systematically strip away the feminine spirit. Through an exploration into the nature of the wild woman archetype, Dr. Estes helps listeners rediscover and free their own wild nature.

This is basically just the prologue!
Revisado: 04-16-17
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
If it had been the whole book
Would you be willing to try another one of Clarissa Pinkola Estes’s performances?
No
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Irritation
Any additional comments?
It would have been good if it was clearly stated that this was not the book (which is long). I shouldn't have to guess that the performance is going to be a million miles from the original.
