The Green Hour: A Natural History of Home by Alison Townsend
3.0
set of essays connected by the author's musings on 'home' and sense of place, communicated by flowery descriptions of the various places she's lived, focusing on the natural elements and animals that inhabit them.
mostly memoir, with discussions of grief (her mother passed of cancer while she was quite young) and the author's stay in a mental health institution in the 1980s.
Beautiful prose, not normally a book i'd pick up but one i know a bunch of readers would enjoy, especially my outdoorsy, woods//wisconsin living and loving family.
