Présentation
Robin Wall Kimmerer is a trained botanist — and a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, raised with the knowledge that plants and animals are our oldest teachers. Braiding Sweetgrass holds both lenses at once: rigorous science and indigenous wisdom, asters and goldenrod, sweetgrass ceremonies and ecological data. The result is a book unlike any other nature writing of our time — patient, generous, quietly radical about what it would mean to live in reciprocity with the living world. A slow-burn word-of-mouth phenomenon beloved by booksellers everywhere.
