Description
Mosses are a common yet overlooked element of the natural world, existing at the limits of our ordinary perception. Robin Wall Kimmerer's book, Gathering Moss, is a beautifully written exploration of the lives of mosses, weaving together science and personal reflection. This book is not an identification guide, but rather a series of linked personal essays that invite readers to explore the lives of mosses and their connections to other beings. Kimmerer explains the biology of mosses, drawing on her diverse experiences as a scientist, mother, teacher, and writer of Native American heritage. Through her writing, the natural history and cultural relationships of mosses become a powerful metaphor for ways of living in the world, making this book appealing to a wide range of readers.
