Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Hailed in the New York Times as a naturalist who can unfurl a sentence with the breathless ease of a master angler, Robert Macfarlane brings his glittering style to a profound work of travel writing, reportage, and natural history. Is a River Alive? is a joyful, mind-expanding exploration of… an ancient, urgent idea: that rivers are living beings who should be recognized as such in imagination and law.Macfarlane takes readers on three unforgettable journeys teeming with extraordinary people, stories, and places: to the miraculous cloud-forests and mountain streams of Ecuador, to the wounded creeks and lagoons of India, and to the spectacular wild rivers of Canadaimperiled respectively by mining, pollution, and dams. Braiding these journeys is the life story of the fragile chalk stream a mile from Macfarlanes house, a stream who flows through his own years and days.Powered by dazzling prose and lit throughout by other minds and voices, Is a River Alive? will open hearts, challenge perspectives, and remind us that our fate flows with that of riversand always has. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
