In this lyrical memoir, Kishkan, a Canadian author/poet/small press owner, pays homage to the trees on her forested property on the Sechelt Peninsula. Blending personal and natural history with mythological and scholarly references, she engages trees (each chapter is named for a particular species) as lenses for reflecting on periods in her life and the changing landscape.
