This is an incredibly helpful guide to both tarot and the Northeast Ohio biotic community! Wilson is a great illustrator, Stansberry always has something to say and many, many sources to draw on (though his tarot investigations tend to head back to the same 3 tarot books), I was intrigued and learned a lot about how my region works through this small book. There was some repetition and its definitely best read spread out, like an entry a day for a month or something, but I just wanted to finish it and powered through last night.

Connection: I applied to work at Belt Publishing early in this book's production cycle as a freshmen at Oberlin College, I believe, and I still might look into Belt opportunities. I received this copy from Belt's publicity guy, as I was originally going to write a review of Rust Belt Arcana prior to the release date, but my plans fell through as another Great Lakes project took over my life (Great Lakes Limnology)

This book is absolutely amazing. Short, literary essays about plants, animals, insects and fungi in the Industrial Midwest paired with Tarot cards that fit the description of the resiliency of the biological organism in our human-dominated landscape. Will lend this book to many of my friends in Ohio and Michigan! A great book club option to consider! A romantic yet inherently familiar combination of nature, mysticism and childhood wonder.
