We'll discuss Is a River Alive? by Robert Macfarlane. Books are available at the Adult and Teen Services Desk one month before each discussion.
Renowed nature writer, Robert Macfarlane, expolores the anceint idea that rivers are living beings who should be recognized as such in imagination and law. He travels to three rivers in Ecudor, India and Canada, braiding together stories of pollution, the people and animals who rely on these rivers and personal anicdotes. Powered by Macfarlane’s dazzling prose and lit throughout by other voices, Is a River Alive? will open hearts, challenge perspectives, and remind us that our fate flows with that of rivers—and always has.
