Writing Wild, by New York Times-bestselling author Kathryn Aalto, explores the lasting impact of
25 women writers whose pens have left an indelible mark on the world of nature writing.
In Writing Wild, Kathryn Aalto celebrates 25 women, both historical and current, whose influential
writing helps deepen our connection to and understanding of the natural world. These inspiring
wordsmiths are scholars, spiritual seekers, conservationists, scientists, novelists, and explorers.
They defy easy categorization, yet they all share a bold authenticity that makes their work both
distinct and universal.
Featured writers include:
• Dorothy Wordsworth, Susan Fenimore Cooper, Gene Stratton-Porter, Mary Austin, and Vita
Sackville-West
Nan Shepherd, Rachel Carson, Mary Oliver, Carolyn Merchant, and Annie Dillard
• Gretel Ehrlich, Leslie Marmon Silko, Diane Ackerman, Robin Wall Kimmerer, and Lauret Savoy
Rebecca Solnit, Kathleen Jamie, Carolyn Finney, Helen Macdonald, and Saci Lloyd
• Andrea Wulf, Camille T. Dungy, Elena Passarello, Amy Liptrot, and Elizabeth Rush
Part travel essay, literary biography, and cultural history, Writing Wild ventures into the
landscapes and lives of extraordinary writers and encourages a new generation of women to pick
up their pens, head outdoors, and start writing wild.
