Customer Reviews

Excellent. Inspiring for our times.

Excellent. Helps reveal the damaging colonized mindset of scarcity and how in nature, there can be abundance of gifts. Teaching us to live in sync with nature.

"We live in a time when every choice matters."

Great book, in her usual cadence and love letter to nature-like style but much more pointed toward our consumption vs. gift-economy. Indigenous wisdom is something we should follow and the idea of shared responsibility to the planet is the only way to survive. It's clear the other reviewer read two lines about the problem with U.S capitalism vs successful socialist countries and got frothed up about the mention of Dear Leader. Goon. Book is great. Read it, it's worth it.

Not a bad first half, the second half leads pretty hard

I thought this would be informative for the service-berry, it turns into a communistic manifesto of sorts, granted from a perfect world standpoint, but not what i wanted. it unfortunately left me feeling like id wasted time reading it and truly i had.
