Book Review - The Overstory
Title: The Overstory
Author: Richard Powers
My Rating: 👍👍👍👍
My Review: I liked this book but I found it a little hard to follow the different stories and characters. The book jumps around somewhat haphazardly between stories and requires the reader to pay close attention. I love the way it incorporated trees into each story and the way it shows how intertwined trees are to our existence. If you love trees, like I do, then this book is for you.
Description (Audible): The Overstory unfolds in concentric rings of interlocking fable that range from antebellum New York to the late 20th-century Timber Wars of the Pacific Northwest and beyond.
An air force loadmaster in the Vietnam War is shot out of the sky, then saved by falling into a banyan. An artist inherits 100 years of photographic portraits, all of the same doomed American chestnut. A hard-partying undergraduate in the late 1980s electrocutes herself, dies, and is sent back into life by creatures of air and light. A hearing- and speech-impaired scientist discovers that trees are communicating with one another.
These and five other strangers, each summoned in different ways by trees, are brought together in a last and violent stand to save the continent's few remaining acres of virgin forest. There is a world alongside ours - vast, slow, interconnected, resourceful, magnificently inventive, and almost invisible to us. This is the story of a handful of people who learn how to see that world and who are drawn up into its unfolding catastrophe.
