Robert MacFarlane
The celebrated, award-winning writer, Robert MacFarlane, discusses his new book, Underland, in conversation with Festival of Ideas director, Andrew Kelly.
“Robert Macfarlane takes us on a deep-time journey into the vast and hidden worlds beneath our feet. From the ice-blue depths of Greenland’s glaciers, to the underground networks by which trees communicate, from Bronze Age burial chambers to the rock art of remote Arctic sea-caves, he voyages into the planet’s past and future, transforming our thinking about the Earth in the time of the Anthropocene.”
Signed copies of Robert Macfarlane’s Underland may be purchased at a special advance discount of £15 (£20 at the event) from the Festival of Ideas website. This offer is for online purchases only. Books to be collected at the event.
