Writer Nicholas Triolo walks the length of the Rio Côa in central
Portugal with a book by Christian mystic Thomas Merton in his pack.
For Merton, the living world shimmered with a divine feminine
presence, meaning all within it was worthy of our love. Along the
winding landscape of the Côa, damaged by agriculture and home to
endangered animals, Nicholas witnesses the messy, subversive nature
of “rewilding.” And with Merton as his companion on the journey, he
begins to feel a wild, relational divinity in the land around him,
and a devotion essential to rewilding place and self amid today’s
crises of despair and destruction. Read the essay. Photo by
