To truly grasp the wisdom of a tree, you need to begin thinking like one... From New York Times bestselling author Robert Moor comes a wondrous, curious journey through the wilds of nature and the gnarls of history, exploring how trees – from the mightiest sequoia to the tiniest bonsai – can teach us to grow wise.

One day, on a whim, Robert Moor set out to climb a tree near his home, unwittingly embarking on what would become a decade-long adventure in trees. From Darwin to Attenborough, Brecht to Wordsworth, cutting-edge scientists and Zen monks and Bonsai artists, In Trees explores the fundamental and meaningful role of trees in the natural world.

In a globe-spanning adventure, from Ethiopia and Papua to the Sierra Nevada mountains and the Lake District, Moor uncovers extraordinary stories of how trees have become embedded in our culture, lifestyle and imagination for centuries, becoming the key to almost everything on our planet.

What began as an ode to the miracle of trees blossoms into a joyous, daring, fiercely hopeful endeavour that reveals. . . a tree is not just a type of being, it is also a way of being. A way of being that's open-minded, playful, rigorous and resilient, and most of all, deeply rooted.

Recensioni della critica

Robert Moor's brilliant In Trees is –– like its subject –– powerfully, fascinatingly arborescent: it branches and roots, gnarls and delves. Moving from sky to earth, Robert Moor unfurls in fine-grained prose the ancient, urgent story of how trees transform us. Reading it, I felt my senses of time, life and process shift in ways I hadn't experienced before. It left me arboresced." (Robert Macfarlane)
Widely branched and deeply rooted, In Trees is a deeply thoughtful exploration of how we unrooted humans value- and devalue- our arboreal relations. With adventurous journeys, lively storytelling and provocative reflection, Moor invites us along to know charismatic forests through the eyes of other worldviews, encouraging our own Green Revelation to guide us through these urgent times.” (Robin Wall Kimmerer)
Robert Moor is one of the few I'd trust to bring a fresh perspective to trees and he does not disappoint. By turns earthy and philosophical, what a captivating and exhilarating book! (Tristan Gooley)
Entertaining, original and inspiring... it will make you think deeply about the place of humanity in the natural world (Clive Cookson)
A sage, companionable and fulgent meditation on how best to be human…The prescription is simple: live like a tree. (Charles Foster)
A beautiful book, impossible to put down. I’ve been recommending it to everyone I know. (David Wallace-Wells)
Marvellous. In Trees is a book of such stature and majesty. (Jay Griffiths)
In In Trees, Robert Moor leads us on a luminous journey into the living forests who gather and sustain us. With deep compassion, empathy and clarity, he reveals a captivating world of intricate connection and intelligence that reshapes how we see trees - and roots our place among them. Wise, profound, and quietly transformative; this is a book I will press into the hands of loved ones (Sophie Pavelle)
Those who loved On Trails are rewarded for their patience with this new book, another in that rare category of 'classic upon publication.' I've lived out my life in places with far more trees than people, and this volume helps me understand why. (Bill McKibben)
Robert Moor is a rare and luminous talent, and In Trees is his best work to date...To read this book is to feel oneself anchored more firmly to the earth and, simultaneously, to become more open to life‘s many branching, wild possibilities. (Ferris Jabr)
