Place & Time

The writers from whom Dark Mountain has taken inspiration are grounded in a sense of place and time. In the deep time of geology and myth, in the rooted relation to place of a tree or the navigational feel for place of a migrant bird.

Steering by the specific, the peculiar character of each season and each stretch of land, we may be less tempted to offer once-and-for-all answers, contenting ourselves with those which will serve for here and for now.
