À propos de cet audio

This book is a collection of essays about living alongside animals and paying attention to what that closeness quietly changes. It is not a guide to grief, training, or healing, and it does not offer conclusions or lessons meant to travel neatly from one life to another.

These pieces move through openness, guardedness, woundedness, steadiness, and imprint, tracing how different animals carry their histories in their bodies and how those histories shape the people who love them. Some arrived easy and stayed easy. Others required patience, structure, or vigilance. Some altered the author’s nervous system so completely that their absence rearranged everything that followed.

What remains is not a philosophy of care, but a record of presence. Of noticing without forcing. Of staying close without possession. Of learning that love does not always expand a life. Sometimes it narrows it, steadies it, or teaches you how to remain intact.
