Critics at Large | The New YorkerSally Rooney’s Beautiful DeceptionsAlmost immediately after the publication of Sally Rooney’s “Normal People,” in 2018, Rooney-mania hit a fever pitch. Her work struck a cord among a generation of readers who responded to evocative descriptions of young people’s lives and relationships. Before long, Rooney had—somewhat reluctantly—been dubbed “the first great millennial author.” On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz discuss “Intermezzo,” Rooney’s hotly anticipated fourth novel, which explores the dynamic between two brothers grieving the death of their father. The book is a sadder, more mature read than Rooney’s fans may have come to expect...

Forest Educator with Ricardo Sierra | A Podcast for Revolutionary Conversations about Nature-Based EducationIs the Recent Guardian Opinion-Article a 'Hit Piece' on Forest Schools? Understanding the Nature Media Narratives with Asa Hardy-BrownlieIt came out of nowhere, right as hundreds of Forest School Leaders were preparing for the Autumn semester: An opinion piece in The Guardian ominously titled "I'm All For the Concept of Forest School, Just Not the Kind I Pulled My Kids Out Of." by Emma Brockes.It's just six paragraphs of cynical observations around schools, camps, forest schools and misunderstanding, but it packs a lot of criticism for nature education without a lot of detail, nuance or substance. It's the kind of piece that can and did get under the skin of a LOT...

The GistFrom FOMO to JOMO - Discover the joy of missing outThe recent solar eclipse has got me thinking about shared human experiences. As the skies took centre stage, I found myself caught up in this celestial wonder along with millions around the world. Maybe you did too. But only a lucky few, at the right location, with clear weather were able to witness it fully. As Emma Brockes of the Guardian writes it was 'an event that rewards a small number of people with an awe-inspiring experience and (leaves) everyone else staring at clouds while murmuring “wow” and wondering when they can leave.' Jokes aside, the next day the...
