Produktbeschreibung
"Powerful, poised, poetic" After years of witnessing religious and political unrest in the evangelical church, Lore Ferguson Wilbert felt alienated and disoriented. She found solace in the woods, where she discovered that the forest could teach her how to live--and even thrive--when everything seems to be falling apart. In The Understory, Wilbert explores what we can learn from eroding soil, the decomposition process, the time it takes to grow lichen, the beauty of fiddlehead ferns, the regeneration of self-sowing seeds, and walking through the mud. Among the understory of the forest, Wilbert discovers rich metaphors for living a rooted and flourishing life within the complex ecosystems of our world. Her journey encourages us to grieve, remember, hope, and press on with resilience. "A remarkably acute and resonant account." --Bill McKibben, author of The End of Nature "Rare and beautiful." --Aundi Kolber, MA, LPC, therapist; author of Try Softer and Strong Like Water "Powerful, poised, poetic. Wilbert preaches like a prophet and writes like a friend." --Rachel Marie Kang, author of Let There Be Art and The Matter of Little Losses "Part Wendell Berry, Eugene Peterson, and Madeleine L'Engle. The result is sheer magic." --A. J. Swoboda, associate professor, Bushnell University; author of After Doubt "Raw honesty devoid of cynicism." --Amanda Held Opelt, author of Holy Unhappiness and A Hole in the World "Concerned with the radical act of being." --Drew Jackson, poet and author of God Speaks through Wombs and Touch the Earth
