Foxfire, Wolfskin and Other Stories of Shapeshifting Women Summary

Foxfire, Wolfskin and Other Stories of Shapeshifting Women by Sharon Blackie

Charged with possibility and power, this memorable collection is an extraordinary immersion into the bodies and voices, mindscapes and landscapes, of the shapeshifting women of our native folklore. Drawing on myth and fairy tales found across Europe from Croatia to Sweden, Ireland to Russia, these stories are about coming to terms with our animal natures, exploring the ways in which we might renegotiate our fractured relationship with the natural world, and uncovering the wildness and wilderness within.

Foxfire, Wolfskin and Other Stories of Shapeshifting Women Reviews

I want to press this powerful book into the hands of everyone I know and say listen." -- Holly Ringland, author of The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart
