Refuge: An Unnatural History of Family and Place

Refuge by Terry Tempest Williams is a powerful and moving work that explores the interconnectedness of life, death, and nature.

This classic book weaves together two narratives: the author's mother's battle with cancer and the threat to the Great Salt Lake's migratory bird sanctuaries due to rising water levels.

Through these stories, Williams reflects on the meaning of life in the face of tragedy and renewal, and the only constants in nature are change and death.

This book is a must-read for anyone who loves nature, poetry, or simply wants to be moved by a beautifully written story.
