Description: The Overstory: A Novel by Richard Powers. 2019 Norton Trade Paperback. From the publisher's description: this book is "a sweeping, impassioned work of activism and resistance that is also a stunning evocation of--and paean to--the natural world. From the roots to the crown and back to the seeds, The Overstory unfolds in concentric rings of interlocking fables that range from antebellum New York to the late twentieth century Timber Wars of the Pacific Northwest and beyond." This is a saga, written by someone who weaves hard science into the threads of fiction. It's about trees, really, and all that they have to teach us. And about time. It is brilliant and frightening and beautiful. It talks a lot about how intricately the world of humans is interconnected with the world of nature. And how we'd better start paying attention. The book itself is in very good condition. There are small scuff marks on the top of the cover (please refer to photos), but it is otherwise completely intact and unmarked.
