This gentle yet deeply felt portrait of an extraordinary yet often overlooked creature was a true pleasure to spend time with. If you need encouragement to slow down and take in the wonders around you—or to feel your kinship with a strange and living world, pick up this peaceful yet powerful science memoir about the author’s time confined to a sickbed and the extraordinary companionship of a simple snail. 🐌

slow-paced
A slow, quiet meditation on human/other-than-human connection, the mysteries of other-than-human Nature, and the strange and often heartbreaking ways our bodies sometimes seem to be working against our own best interests.
