Dead Ice, Living Water

In 2021 I attended a funeral service for the Basòdino Glacier in Ticino, Switzerland. The long-form piece I wrote about this strange, haunting, perplexing event – and how its underlying themes flow into the ‘rights of nature’ movement, and living rivers in Cambridgeshire, Aotearoa New Zealand and Quebec – is published by Alexander, with narration by the brilliant Jessie Buckely.

For now it’s only available to paying subscribers of that app, but there are dozens of other great pieces on there, available as text and audio, so it’s well worth the price of the subscription fee! You can subscribe here.

Also, do watch the trailer for a small taste of the story.
