In this gorgeously illustrated and deeply thoughtful collection  Katie Holten gifts readers her tree alphabet and uses it to masterfully translate and illuminate beloved lost and new  original writing in praise of the natural world. With an introduction from Ross Gay  and featuring writings from over fifty contributors including Ursula K. Le Guin  Ada Limn  Robert Macfarlane  Zadie Smith  Radiohead  Aimee Nezhukumatathil  James Gleick  Elizabeth Kolbert  Plato  and Robin Wall Kimmerer  Holten illustrates each selection with an abiding love and reverence for the magic of trees. She guides readers on a journey from creation myths and cave paintings to the death of a 3 500-year-old cypress tree  from Tree Clocks in Mongolia and forest fragments in the Amazon to the language of fossil poetry  unearthing a new way to see the natural beauty all around us and an urgent reminder of what could happen if we allow it to slip away.  The Language of Trees considers our relationship with literature and landscape  resulting in an astonishing fusion of storytelling and art and a deeply beautiful celebration of trees through the ages.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44985172525109,"sku":"ByrdShop_1953534686","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781953534682.jpg?v=1770850326","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-language-of-trees-a-rewilding-of-literature-and-landscape","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
