Caroline Lucas Book Recommendations & Book Mentions

Caroline Lucas

This book is so important on a personal level because I think if one considers how we want to die, then that also raises big questions about how to live well. And having those thoughts now, when there’s still time to potentially change the way we do things... feels quite important.

For me, Mary Oliver is just a reminder to slow down a bit. Sometimes she talks about the importance of just paying attention. And I find that very helpful, because I am prone to dashing from one thing to the next thing … These poems are kind of mindfulness in action.

How to communicate about climate change is something that I literally lie awake worrying about, and I think [Kingsolver] just does a fantastic job with this book, because it will reach people for whom the climate emergency is not something that’s necessarily on the top of their agenda.

And in other news ... just finished reading the amazing Shuggie Bain, who has been my trusty companion all Christmas. Really tried to slow down towards the end because I couldn’t bear to finish it. A truly wonderful novel, thank you @Doug_D_Stuart https://t.co/yJdRZ68NMY
