What wonderful news: Robin Wall Kimmerer and Drew Lanham @wildandincolor are recipients of MacArthur Fellowships. Read from their stories in @emergence_zine below. I use several of these pieces in my classes, sharing with students the brilliance and deep-rootedness of their work https://t.co/T1jEVCULVt

On Bruce Pascoe's Dark Emu: "descriptions of the extraordinary depth of integration between people and the landscape in pre-colonized Australia is also a lesson and inspiration to the rest of the world as we seek more sustainable and resilient economies" https://t.co/GsqAdmj4Lz

Rachel Eisendrath's Gallery of Clouds @NYRB_Imprints is marvelous. Deliciously digressive, brilliantly witty, inspiringly erudite. About the "pastoral" and Arcadia, but at core a meditation on reading, art, and life. Another great recommendation from @PointReyesBooks @rs_sparks https://t.co/jEJXxVnoTY

I don't usually read with pen in hand, but the richness of the narratives and ideas in @GhoshAmitav's The Nutmeg's Curse compelled ink to flow. I strongly recommend this book: Reframes. Reimagines. Honors and elevates the agency and stories of the living Earth. @UChicagoPress https://t.co/GiExJvPcvJ

"Power in the Wild" is a brilliant journey into the intricate dramas of animal behavior and evolution. Along the way, we also see the scientific process in vivid light, a wonderful exposition of how to deepen understanding of the living world. https://t.co/YCwHWCg7du
