{"product_id":"9780618619207","title":"Wolves and Honey: A Hidden History of the Natural World","description":"\u003cbr\u003eOne seeks for words worthy of the authenticity and intimacy of this beautiful book. It is a treasury of perceptions, tender and unsparing, of our planetary existence; a sensual affinity with all that grows, flourishes, and dies--conveyed in a clear voice unlike any other.\" -- Shirley Hazzard \u003cp\u003eAn arresting reflection on the human relationship with nature, Wolves and Honey is grounded in the exploration of two eccentric personalities -- one a trapper, the other a beekeeper -- and their very different attitudes toward the world. While illuminating her own poignant relationships with these men who deeply influenced her, Susan Brind Morrow offers a meditation on the land itself -- specifically, the rich and storied Finger Lakes region of New York. Keenly attuned to unexpected scientific, historical, and metaphorical connections, Morrow's writing provides a strikingly original perspective on the fine but resilient threads that bind us all to the natural world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Beautifully crafted prose . . . trac[es] the rich histories of two men -- one a beekeeper, the other a trapper . . .
