Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "Together, the words in this collection make triumphant and vital cacophony that add to their meditations on earth, air, fire and water a new element: life, and how to live it.Bathsheba Demuth, writer and environmental historian and author of Floating Coast: An Environmental History of the Bering StraitAn Elemental Life, Volume 5 of the 5-Volume Elementals series, is a stunning collection of essays, poetry, and stories that illuminate the dynamic relationships between people and place, human and nonhuman life, mind and the material world, and the living energies that make all life possible.If the elements are kin to one another, then what does it mean to live in kinship with the elements? Asking this question encourages a perspective shift from interacting with the elementals to partaking in their being. The stories and poems in this volume bring the elements into conversation with one another in order to open awareness, heighten connection, and offer practices that can help us live more elementally. Welcome to An Elemental Life.The Elementals series explores how people from various cultures across the planet have worked with these powerful forces of change and regeneration to shape landscapes and deepen personal and place-based relationships.
