Description
The Nature Book is a sweeping evocation of Earth's rhythms, collating descriptions of the natural world into a singular symphonic paean to the planet. Tom Comitta brings together 300 works of fiction to create a provocative re-envisioning of the novel.
By foregrounding animals, landforms, and weather patterns, The Nature Book challenges anthropocentrism with sublime artistic vision. This literary supercut shifts our attention toward the magnificently complex and interconnected world around us.
The result is a post-human novel that honors the natural world in its own right, rather than for its ambient role in human drama.
