Beschreibung:
When the pandemic struck, nature writer David Gessner looked to Thoreau for guidance. Here are the lessons he took away.
"A powerful and timely book from one of the most provocative and engaging voices in contemporary environmental writing."
—MICHAEL P. BRANCH, author of How to Cuss in Western
When the pandemic struck, nature writer David Gessner turned to Henry David Thoreau, the original social distancer, for lessons on how to live. Those lessons—of learning our own backyard, re–wilding, loving nature, self–reliance, and civil disobedience—hold a secret that could help save us as we face the greater crisis of climate.
DAVID GESSNER is the author ofLeave It As It Is: A Journey Through Theodore Roosevelt's American Wilderness and theNew York Times–bestsellingAll the Wild That Remains: Edward Abbey, Wallace Stegner and the American West. Chair of the Creative Writing Department at the University of North Carolina Wilmington, and founder and editor–in–chief ofEcotone, Gessner lives in Wilmington, North Carolina, with his wife, the novelist Nina de Gramont, and their daughter, Hadley.
