Wildest Dream

An imagined history of the Green Man
Wildest Dream traces the figure of the Green Man as he's passed through the ages. Along the way we meet characters old and new, and communities striving for a better world. His story asks questions about encounters with wildness and resisting violence. A beautiful, hopeful challenge to live in deeper communion with each other and the earth.

“I look up into the falling rain, letting it splash in my face, and hope against hope that the inspiriting green can yet disturb the civilised order before it consumes everything. This is, I suppose, an activist’s prayer. May the green spill into our lives and burst out again in a hundred thousand practices of vitality, attention, and care.”

What happens when we embrace wildness, as individuals and as a society? Wildest Dream poses this question, tracing the figure of the Green Man as he has passed through the ages, amongst our May festivals, church walls and peasant protest, and into emerging movements of resistance and change. Along the way we meet characters old and new, and find communities striving for a better world. 

While the Green Man’s story asks that we confront the violence faced by people and planet, David Gee’s enduring message is above all one of hope – a beautiful challenge to live in deeper communion with each other and the earth.
