Deep Creek: Finding Hope in the High Country by Pam Houston

4.0

This memoir is at once urgent and languid, an elegy for a disappearing earth and a ode to her many living beauties. It is sincerely, genuinely, deeply felt and deeply written. Her insight into how humans can both terrorize and heal the earth and her inhabitants is singular and invaluable in such a universally dire time. The author is wise, honest, and her empathy for the natural world is so beautifully written that I could feel my heart grow with hers. What an outstanding book. Please read this if you, like so many others, are overwhelmed by the current trajectory of the earth.
