Atria Books, 29.99 (320p) ISBN 978-1-6680-4485-8 Essayist Waite debuts with a bracing account of her husband’s sudden death and the secrets she unearthed after he was gone. “What if the function of grief... is to guide human beings to a deeper understanding of the nature of life,” Waite asks in the book’s final pages. [...]revelations should compel humans to reconsider their relationship with the natural world, he argues, discussing how a recent campaign to gain legal personhood for a Bronx Zoo Asian elephant envisions what a more considerate relationship might look like. Grayson provides colorful accounts of the farmers’ life stories, recounting how Alexandra Rosenberg-Rigutto dropped out of high school and struggled with drug addiction before becoming the director of a northern Michigan farm that teaches Jewish children how to grow produce, and how Natalie Bogwalker spent five years “in a hand-built dwelling, cooking roadkill over a stick-sparked fire, cloaked in buckskin” before starting a North Carolina permaculture school.
