Invisible Cities by Italo Calvino

5.0

I read this immediately after finishing Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer. What a brain shock! The two books form a stark and peculiar juxtaposition. But many of the things I love about Calvino's book are things that it shares with Kimmerer's. It is concerned with the relationships between humans and their environment, humans and time, humans and imagination, humans and material culture.
