At once a beautifully poetic memoir and an exploration of the various ways we live in the world, A Language Older Than Words explains violence as a pathology that touches every aspect of our lives and indeed affects all aspects of life on Earth. This chronicle of a young man's drive to transcend domestic abuse offers a challenging look at our worldwide sense of community and how we can make things better.

If you are looking for a place to go after consuming all Daniel Quinn has to offer, then I am certain this will become your seminal book. Beautifully written and masterfully read by Oni … if it does not shake you to your core, you do not know what it means to be alive on this planet.

A beautiful punch in the gut!

This book had me angry, grieving, and forced me to acknowledge my own trauma. At the same time I've learned to look more closely at the world and I've found so much to love. I'm hurting all the time because I'm witnessing the destruction of what I love most, but at the same time I've only recently discovered that love. Derrick Jensen's work has been a guide in my awakening and I'm forever grateful to have found his work and been in a place in my own life where I can internalize his convictions. 10/10 always recommending

Life changing!

"This is on how to be sane in an insane culture" - Derrick Jensen ; also, this is a male author, even though the audiobook is narrated by a female voice actor. Definitely hard at first, but it's worth it.

A Cleansing

I love this author and his deep thinking. I first read the book years ago and it had a profound effect on me., I was not the same after reading it. Now, listening to it in it's entirety again was refreshing and it's still entirely relevant. The reader's voice is both soothing and compelling; I found myself looking forward to the 20 minute drive to work just so I could listen again. Thank you 💗

I don't remember the last time I felt this gutted yet empowered by a book... Derrick Jensen's heart-shredding medicine made easier going down by the honey - smooth voice of Oni Woods Ojukwu. I can't thank them both enough for this masterpiece <3
