This is so well said — and so true of all areas of biology (and medicine), not just mycology.

“I have tried to find ways to enjoy the ambiguities that fungi present, but it‘s not always easy to be comfortable in the space created by open questions. Agoraphobia can set in. It‘s tempting to hide in small rooms built from quick answers. I have done my best to hold back.”

#two4Tuesday Thanks @TheSpineView for the tag!

1) a cup of black tea with honey in the morning and after dinner, cuddles with my cat

2) persistence in the face of death and just about everything else!

The Man Who Died | Antti Tuomainen

Pickpick

This is an oddly entertaining and satisfying murder mystery—the victim performing his own investigation to find his murderer while trying to save his organic mushroom business against a fierce competitor in this quiet Finnish hamlet. Jaakko has been poisoned over a long period of time such that he became used to it while it damaged all of his internal organs. He‘s on borrowed time. And does he ever make use of it. There are only two suspects ⬇️

Texreader but the ending is still a big surprise. And he has only one real goal other than seeing his murderer come to justice—saving his little business, a full time job given the snazzy new mushroom business down the road with its spanking new equipment and outbidding all his employees to come work there. While not rollicking funny it‘s truly entertaining. I found myself rooting for Jaakko even when he wasn‘t making the best decisions. Will he survive? ⬇️ 4mo
Texreader Sadly no. He really is the victim of a murder (the title of the book is a dead giveaway). But before he goes, he‘s going to take care of business. I‘d really like to read more by this author if his books have been translated and made available in the US. #Finland #foodandlit @Catsandbooks #letterM #Christmasatoz #xmaschacha #wintergames @StayCurious (edited) 4mo
