Helen Matusow-Ayres (with co-host, Kayce Hughlett) moderates a discussion of selected readings from Firefox, Wolfskin and Other Stories of Shapeshifting Women by Sharon Blackie.

We will be discussing these three myths from the book:

• Meeting Baba Yaga

• The Madness of Mis

• No Country for Old Women

About this selection: Drawing on myth and fairy tales found across Europe – from Croatia to Sweden, Ireland to Russia – Sharon Blackie brings to life women’s remarkable ability to transform themselves in the face of seemingly impossible circumstances.

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.
