Reviews

[Jay · Rating 4 out of 5]

A typically wonderful treatment of the ordinary made extraordinary by Teale's uncanny ability to see the things that most of us do not. I did not enjoy every chapter but most were exceptional and brought things we often take for granted in the natural world to light and a high plane.
