Emily Zobel Marshall's second collection, Other Wild has been reviewed by Maria Jastrzebska for Writers Mosaic.
"From its opening lines, this beautiful book is one of healing and discovery. It is also about the refusal to be defined – ‘mapped’ – by anyone else. Emily Zobel Marshall understands that these things must come through connection: to nature, to other people, to our own selves. She invites us in through our senses, our bodies."
"Whether writing with tenderness or anger, Emily Zobel Marshall opens up space for herself, and so for all of us. She never allows herself to be corralled or diminished (‘Let Me Map You, He Said’). She discovers ‘Smaller Things’ in ‘dereliction’, finds renewal both in and outside of herself – in the rhythm of ‘heart-beat and foot-beat’ (‘Looking For Answers in the Fog’) – and that is true poetry."
