Nature. Glorious Nature. With technology beeping from our wrists, pockets, and purses, it's easy to forget about the gifts, lessons, and healing powers Nature has for us. The Unexpected Nature of Things is about remembering just that.
Through poems and art-photographs, Robbins invites us to join her in the natural world. She shows us how an ant teaches her about her life and work, a mockingbird about listening, a butterfly about desire, a hawk about a lost sister, while falling leaves yield lessons about time and etymology, wild geese about being faithful, the river about hope.
The art-photographs here hold even more of the unexpected. Created by way of a process Robbins developed in 2004, these images will take your breath away and make you look twice.
In a world that's beeping louder every day, we would all do well to take a deep, quiet breath and sit a while with this book, hopefully in Nature.
