Rivers of Wind
Essays on ecology and culture by Little Bluestem worker member Ben Kessler. Illustrated by Meghan Orbeck. From the back cover:
In the midst of ecological catastrophe, Indigenous persecution, and the attempted mechanization of the living world, the beauty of the earth remains defiantly vibrant. The voice of the world still speaks in tongues of wind and water, feather and flame, whether we listen or not. Alternately lyric and scientific, critical and moving, Kessler examines the relationships between nature and language, colonial and indigenous cultures, and extinction and memory, and in so doing presents a unique vision of our place in an ancient, fragile living world.
