DID NOT FINISH: 54%

I didn't dislike this book, but at over halfway through it has been more memoir and reflection on how white European values shape our perception of the natural world. There is some discussion around Native American cultures and their reltionship with nature, how little binary exists in plant and animal kingdoms, and interesting facts about creatures, but I realized I was only listening to the book to pass the time. The prose is lovely and has a needed place in our world, but ultimately I went in looking for a more educational non-fiction work than this provides.
