Ulteriori informazioni

Richard Horan''s Seeds, the chronicle of one man''s quest to understand the influence and impact of trees in American life and literature-and his mission to collect seeds from the homes of Kerouac, Welty, Wharton, Kesey and twenty other authors, to preserve the literary legacy of American forests for generations to come. From the wooded road made of golden hemlock running past L. Frank Baum''s childhood home to the lonely stump of Scout''s oak in Harper Lee''s Alabama, author Richard Horan gathers tree seeds-and stories-from the homes of America''s most treasured authors. At once a heartfelt paean to literature and a wise, funny, and uplifting account of one man''s reconnection with nature, Seeds celebrates Horan''s triumphs and calamities on his quest to link trees with great writers-a delightfully original meditation on the nature of inspiration and a one-of-a-kind adventure into literature.
