This strange and unruly anthology invites you into a cyclical world alive with sporific beings, curious elements, ritual remembering, and fragments of wisdom. It is offered as an altar or companion, a book to carry into the forest, to muddy, dog-ear, and return to again and again.

Within the pages, you'll meet the voices of Bayo Akomolafe, adrienne maree brown, Tyson Yunkaporta, Sylvia V. Linsteadt, Pinar Sinopoulos-Lloyd, brontë velez, Lyla June, Jarod K. Anderson, Jacqueline Suskin, Dori Midnight, and many more luminaries, each tracing lines of living reciprocity between humans, creatures, elements, and Earth.

Slow Earth Companion gathers these voices and visions, shaped over a decade of deep listening and relational conversation, and sets them loose in prose, prayer, poetry, and practice. Throughout the book are stirring and sensorial drawings by Krista Dragomer that hum and buzz with elemental entanglement with a wily more-than-human presence to nudge you along the way.

Join us. Let us venture, shift, falter, heal, and traverse together.
