Reviving Artemis

Deborah Lee Luskin's memoir recounts her journey of stepping out of her suburban routine at age sixty to embrace the wilderness as a huntress, inspired by the stories of Artemis and her own desire to connect more deeply with nature. Overcoming fears and learning about the role of hunting in the ecosystem, she embarks on a personal quest to understand and engage with the natural world through the experience of hunting deer. The book explores themes of self-discovery, environmental connection, and the reclaiming of one’s place in nature.
