Meet the Author – Robert Macfarlane

02 Apr, 2026

This is the extended version of the author talk with British writer Robert Macfarlane, who is described as the foremost nature writer of our time.

In his latest international bestseller, “Is a River Alive?”, he urges us to fundamentally rethink our way of thinking. What happens if we shift our focus away from the prevailing anthropocentric view – that the Earth’s resources exist solely for our benefit?
