Rooted 2: The Best New Arboreal Nonfiction (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781944853891)

Welcome to the second edition of ROOTED: The Best New Arboreal Nonfiction. A collective home for tree stories, and a place where we can celebrate the ways our lives are framed, overlapped, and otherwise entangled with the arboreal. Featuring new and original work by forty-five writers. Series editor Josh MacIvor-Andersen returns with tales of birth, death, resurrection and reincarnation. Sagas of leaving and returning, of harrowing bravery and crippling fear. Lyric essays about moon trees and space debris, personal narratives braiding the assassination of JFK (on Elm Street!) with the resilience of a relationship and the suffering of surgery. Fruit, both ripe and rotted, bees and blossoms, roots and branches pruned, broken, or holding their own. Just like us. Just like all of us.
