It isn’t too heavy and reminds me of the essays of the nature writer Ken Lamberton. I have just finished his book TIME OF GRACE: THOUGHTS ON NATURE, FAMILY, AND THE POLITICS OF CRIME AND PUNISHMENT. His first book WILDERNESS AND RAZOR WIRE, published while Ken was in an Arizona prison, won the John Burroughs Medal for the year’s best nature writing. I’ve met him a couple of times. A wonderful human being.

Thanks for sharing this lovely writing, Stephanie. I feel lucky to know you.
