William Henry Searle, PhD., born 1987, in Dorset, UK, is a writer, poet, and environmental philosopher. He grew up in the New Forest where his abiding love and fascination for the natural world took root. His first book, Lungs of my Earth: A Personal Ecology, published by Hiraeth Press, has received praise from writers and thinkers such as Joanna Macy, Satish Kumar, Sir Andrew Motion, and others. He is passionate about restoring the sacred to people’s relationships with the natural world. He is currently at work on his next book, Landscapes of Kin, which explores the meanings of intimacy and kinship between people and places, how relationships are made and unmade through time. He lives in the New Forest with his wife and two Welsh Collies, Daisy and Dilly. He works for The Reader, a charity which seeks to implement good literature as a vehicle for healing and well-being.
