Özet

Living at the limits of our ordinary perception, mosses are a common but largely unnoticed element of the natural world. Gathering Moss is a beautifully written mix of science and personal reflection that invites listeners to explore and learn from the elegantly simple lives of mosses.

Robin Wall Kimmerer's audiobook is not an identification guide, nor is it a scientific treatise. Rather, it is a series of linked personal essays that will lead general listeners and scientists alike to an understanding of how mosses live and how their lives are intertwined with the lives of countless other beings, from salmon and hummingbirds to redwoods and rednecks. Kimmerer clearly and artfully explains the biology of mosses, while at the same time reflecting on what these fascinating organisms have to teach us.

Drawing on her diverse experiences as a scientist, mother, teacher, and writer of Native American heritage, Kimmerer explains the stories of mosses in scientific terms as well as in the framework of indigenous ways of knowing. In her audiobook, the natural history and cultural relationships of mosses become a powerful metaphor for ways of living in the world.

I found this book really grounding and inspiring. I listened to parts of it with my children and it prompted walks in search and appreciation of mosses around us. It also made me think more deeply about the provenance and life of things around me. An important book that I am already recommending to friends.

Helps you look closer

Much more of a plant-based narrative than its predecessor Braiding Sweetgrass. Still soothingly told. Hypnotic.

I'm so glad this book was read by the author, I don't imagine anyone could have infused it with the grace and intellect she could.
I real story of connection with this ancient piece of life, its journeys, its ways of being, the growing and yet still very sparse knowledge of its relationships and effects on the rest of our eco system. And all the time infused with the scientific perspective, as well as the heart of a profoundly spiritual woman of nature.
I already loved moss, and listening to this wonderful book has only deepened my appreciation and enhanced my perspective of its beauty.
Thank you so much for sharing this with us Robin X

Both beautiful and informative

Robin Wall Kimmerer writes in such a lovely way, conveying information through personal stories, allowing you to connect deeply even if you’re not a biologist. Her reading is also so calming and engaging. Highly recommend, along with her braiding sweetgrass on audible too

Moving and calming

The author has an enchanting narrative that explains the intricate ways in which nature connects us all. Yet, "Ownership seems a uniquely human behaviour, a social contract validating the desire for purposeless possession and control."

The quality of recording was not as good Braiding Sweetgrass.

Enchanting!
