Book Description
Deserts, sub-arctic forests, mountains and the human soul. These are the landscapes traversed in this book. The more an individual feels trapped in their life, the greater their hunger for adventure. But we live in an increasingly risk-averse culture which values and encourages consumption above all. Paul is an ordinary man, inspired to do the extra-ordinary. When he reached the end of his capacity to endure the monotony of a stuck and limited life, he stepped off the edge and re-discovered the adventurous spirit of childhood. The reader can identify with his struggles and triumphs as they are invited to strike out on their own voyage of discovery to the wild places of the world and the wild places within. This is a book directed, primarily, at men. The anxieties and uncertainties of a rapidly changing world have generated a corresponding spiritual hunger. Men need adventure, but without a trans-personal mission, no adventure will truly satisfy. 'God of the Wild Places' is a road-book in this search for soul. It speaks in an earthy and grounded voice which is immediately accessible to men, whilst retaining a poetry which offers to take them deeper. It is a book which offers women an intriguing glimpse into the, often paradoxical, complexity of the masculine heart. Bill Kauth, co-founder of the Mankind Project and author of 'A Circle of Men: The Original Manual for Men's Support Groups' , has the following to say:Paul takes on more adventures before breakfast than most of us do in a lifetime. As these stories bubble up from his heart we get to see who he really is inside. We find not a bragging jock, but a sensitive, feeling man testing himself to the edge of endurance, over and over until we truly meet brother wolverine- the embodiment of tenacity. He curls up to sleep feeling bruised, battered, well-used and very happy. You can feel him stepping beyond his limited self to see a bigger world. Exhilarating writing. Innocent, emotional sharing. We know a man determined to live life fully, intensely. Through his eyes we see the world expanding. I felt inspired and touched. Enjoy this book!
