On the subject of engaging or not engaging, I recommend these books: "The Inheritors" by William Golding - shockingly good and incredibly pertinent as ever, in terms of who we are and what we do to our environment, our species and other species.
"Creaturely Poetics" by Anat Pick - "... human-animal distinction... exacts a devastatingly violent price on animals.." "Pincher Martin" by William Golding "The Green Child" by Herbert Read - who was incidentally an anarchist, (bloody art historian) although they forced a knighthood on the poor farmer's lad from Yorkshire! Enjoy the read - by the real fire curled up in the little second-hand- or-skip-procured armchair.
