It's been a long time since a nonfiction book has made me cry, and I'm so grateful that this one was written as beautifully and movingly as it was. I can't wait to read more from Robin Wall Kimmerer, I'm already looking forward to reading this book again. While I know and have been previously taught that humans are not separate from nature, and that we are just as much part of the environment that we live in as wild animals and plants and microorganisms there, the pervasive attitude around me insists that we're above it. This book was the perfect reminder that we are responsible for the Earth, and that the Earth needs us just as we need it.
