Welcome to Litsy!

Katie Holten is an artist who collected poetry, recipes, excerpts from essays, thoughts related to trees. Some are philosophical, some scientific. Authors range from Ross Gay to Ada Limon, Robert MacFarlane, Richard Powers, Plato or Radiohead. I enjoyed reading bits and pieces but overall, I wonder: what is this? I don‘t understand what “a rewilding of literature and landscape” means and what the point of this book is. Not for me.

1. I picked up the tagged book from my free cycle group.
2. The house was at the end of a long drive in the woods, and when I got there I saw a bald eagle in the trees.
3. Then I went to my favorite indie bookstore followed by a late lunch of loaded fries and spiced winter ale.
4. I spent several hours waiting while my car was being serviced, but I had a good book (and some entertaining canned TV programming) to keep me occupied.

Absolutely adoring this one! My husband's even reading it along with me! 🌳💚🌳

A literary postage stamp? Why, thank you very much!!!

I have been loving reading A Tree a Day with #naturalitsy. I took my book with me on our hike today to photograph with our state tree, the Palo Verde. This is not her prettiest time of year (check back in March or April for yellow flowers) but you can still see what makes her unique, a green trunk and green branches.

Starting the tagged book off of @pogue's list, and already there are so many good quotes / passages! #auldlangspine @monalyisha

Singing to trees, you say? Well, sure! Why not? @AllDebooks #naturalitsy

I‘m all caught up on my daily trees, and I read December and January from The Wild Remedy.
Hoping to finish Joan Didion in Women‘s Lives tomorrow, and get more into The Heaven and Earth Grocery Store.

Thanks for asking @rachelsbrittain !

Enjoy!

I don't know how a climate dystopian can be achingly beautiful in symbolism, but this one is. I loved the short story about trees and the idea that they would tell their own story while the humans destroy the world.
