Ecozoa

This is a collection of ecopoetry from award-winning poet Helen Moore. Inspired by William Blake''s unfinished book The Four Zoas which explored the power of the imagination to address the ecological crises we face. Every chapter has been revised and two new chapters on firewood and diseases has been added. Ecopoetry is new poetry for a new age of awareness and Helen Moore is a leading light in this probing, ground breaking genre. In William Blake''s unfinished book ''The Four Zoas'', mythology points to the power of the imagination to address the ecological crisis we face. Moore contemporises this vision, showing how rebalancing ''four zoas'' can enable us to connect with the heart, and get to the root of our problems. In this way, fear and limited thinking can fall away, opening up liminal spaces where our love of freedom can flourish and collectively we can sense the evolving futures we most desire. As Berry reminds us, the Ecozoic Era is a phenomenon ''we must will into being''. See more
