Description
Thirteen Ways to Smell a Tree is a unique exploration of our connection with trees, revealing the intricate relationships between our senses and the natural world. David George Haskell guides us on a journey of discovery, uncovering the evocative scents of trees that evoke memories and emotions.
Through thirteen essays, Haskell takes us on a sensory journey, from the smell of a freshly printed book to the calming scent of Linden blossom, and from the herbal odour of European juniper berries to the ingredients of a good gin & tonic. Each chapter summons a new aroma, inviting us to breathe in the complexity of life.
This book is a breath of fresh air, reminding us to slow down and appreciate the world around us. With Haskell's witty and erudite companion, you'll discover the wonders of the natural world through the sense of smell, and perhaps, just perhaps, you'll find yourself smelling a tree in a whole new way.
