À propos de cet audio
Toad Hall, derelict and empty for a century, sees the return of the impecunious Horatio Toad and his six wives to the ancestral home.
In need of cash, Horatio has leased out his estate and formed a partnership with oddball rewilder Georges Montgolfiere, who needs the land more than he needs Horatio. Tensions mount as Horatio’s vision of an animal-based theme park replete with zipwires and gift shops is diametrically opposed to Montgolfiere’s purist sensibilities.
Meanwhile, a bemused Mole surfaces not to a “Silent Spring”, as Montgolfiere contends, but to a fractious one. Badger is incandescent; someone or something has pillaged his truffle beds. Ratty, now vegan and identifying as a vole, is suffering from alopecia while the translocated otter family copes with indigestion and sewage.
A “New Wild Order” will emerge, but the outcome will be beyond Montgolfiere’s wildest imaginings. The rewilder will discover the rewilded have their own plans, and every dog will have its day.
Willows Rewilded is a humorous slant on rewilding and contemporary politics with a mystical twist in the tale. Note- with some adult content.
