Le Guin, Robert Macfarlane, Zadie Smith, Radiohead, Elizabeth Kolbert, Amitav Ghosh, Richard Powers, Suzanne Simard, Gaia Vince, Tacita Dean, Kerri ni Dochartaigh & Robin Wall Kimmerer. In this deeply thoughtful collection, artist Katie Holten gifts readers her visual Tree Alphabet made of the trees themselves and uses it to masterfully translate and illustrate these pieces from some of the worlds most exciting writers and artists, activists and ecologists. Holten guides us on a journey from prehistoric cave paintings and creation myths 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. In doing so, she unearths a new way of seeing the natural beauty that surrounds us and creates an urgent reminder of what could happen if we allow it to slip away.The Language of Trees is an astonishing fusion of storytelling, knowledge and art that reveals how these living, feeling, communicating beings make our world, change our minds and rewild our lives.Immersive, celebratory and timely all beautifully illustrated by Holten.Observer. Inspired by forests, leaves, roots, and seeds, The Language of Trees is a gorgeously illustrated collection, a love letter to the wonder of trees and how they make our world, stretch our minds and rewild our landscapes and lives.
