This is a dense, serious read. It took me awhile, but it was worth the time and effort. Very impressive.
back blurb - From the roots to the crown and back to the seeds, this book unfolds in concentric rings of interlocking fables that range from antebellum New York to the late 20th century Timber Wars of the Pacific Northwest and beyond. This is the story of a handful of people who learn how to see that world (vast, slow, interconnected, resourceful, magnificently inventive, and almost invisible to us) and who are drawn up into unfolding catastrophe.
Trees! Hug one today.
Hi Joanne - it sounds an interesting read ... the timber in the Pacific Northwest has some interesting stories - real and fiction ... cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteIt’s not a light reading experience. Makes you think a lot about the interconnection of everything.
