Islands of Abandonment: Nature Rebounding in the Post-Human Landscape by Cal Flyn

4.0

"This is a corrupted world, yes—one long fallen from a state of grace—but it is a world too that knows how to live. It has a great capacity for repair, for recovery, for forgiveness—of a sort—if we can only learn to let it do so."

Read this if you like books about the environment and the strength and vitality of nature in the wake of human destruction and abandonment; simultaneously sad and hopeful.
