Underland: A Deep Time Journey by Robert Macfarlane

challenging informative reflective slow-paced

5.0

Fascinating and haunting, Underland: A Deep Time Journey explores the underlands both man-made and natural and the many ways they have been used from ancient times to now, and even beyond. This book, as its subtitle implies, is as much about time as it is about the places beneath. Focusing primarily on the undergrounds of various locales in Europe, Robert Macfarlane deftly leads the reader through these places and their layers of time. Throughout Underland, Macfarlane balances the wonder with the existential dread as he discusses caves, underground rivers, and the underneaths of glaciers. He combines science, archaeology, history, ecology and many more disciplines in this book without ever letting the reader get lost.
