Since I'm surely never going to Oaxaca, though it is fun to say that name out loud, it is a bit of vicarious living. I like the way Sacks falls for ferns, his ostensible subject, for their primness in the sexual realm (they reproduce asexually, by spores). <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/733802?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
