Gathering Moss: A Natural and Cultural History of Mosses
Description
In this lyrical blend of natural history, memoir, and cultural reflection, mosses emerge as intricate, resilient organisms with much to reveal about the living world. Through interconnected essays, the author explores moss biology, ecological relationships, and the often-overlooked beauty of small forms of life. Scientific insight is woven together with personal experience and Indigenous perspectives, inviting readers to reconsider how knowledge is gathered and how humans relate to nature. Both accessible and contemplative, the book offers a thoughtful meditation on interdependence, attentiveness, and more reciprocal ways of living.
