Overview

What Randal had was a vision of Dunsany given back to nature. Wild Thing is a brilliant memoir-with-a-mission, showcasing how this poisoned chalice - a cold, leaky, needy castle, with all the responsibilities to the generations before - became a personal journey toward fulfilment, a vital mission toward a better, more sustainable, future, and a call to arms for the environment, and the people who live among it.

Reviews

'Randal's voice dares to diverge in a world built on conformity and tradition. These pages are steeped in fearless vulnerability in a search for self that unfolds into something far greater: a joyous reawakening of the wild, and a re-emergence of nature on a grand scale. I genuinely revelled in every moment. This book is raw, heartfelt, brave and just utterly alive' -- Seán Ronayne * author of Nature Boy *

Born in New York, and brought up in New York, London, and Switzerland, as well as in his native Ireland, he returned to Dunsany Castle aged 23. Upon inheriting the title Baron Dunsany, together with the castle and estate, he has spent the last decade working to re-wild a large portion of the 1,600 acre estate, while dedicating the remainder to sustainable plant-based agriculture.
