The Stuff of Trees

Publisher Klincksieck
COLLECTION De natura rerum
GENRE Essay - Ecology
An invitation to find out all about trees, live alongside them, and observe their botanical specificities.

Countless trees dot our landscapes, rural and urban alike. Some spring up on their own, others are planted. They're all around, yet we can't tell them apart. But much can be learned from their variety and nuance. There is no limit to what we can observe if we take the time to watch a root become a trunk with branches and shoots.
A sensitive witness to the lives of trees, de Rubercy introduces readers to what, through changing seasons and different species, accounts for their botanical uniqueness : "the muffled, mysterious force that runs through them and keeps them standing."
