"A Language Older Than Words" is a book by author and activist Derrick Jensen that explores the deep connections between language, culture, and the natural world. Jensen argues that modern society has lost touch with the primal forms of communication that exist in nature, leading to a disconnection from the environment and each other. Through personal anecdotes and philosophical reflections, Jensen emphasizes the importance of listening to the voices of the earth and understanding the unspoken languages of animals and ecosystems. He advocates for a return to a more intuitive and respectful way of relating to the world around us.
