Lichens: Toward a Minimal Resistance
“A comprehensive survey of how eco-poets have been drawn towards lichens in recent years, finding in them a rich seam of metaphors and symbols not just for the poor, the marginal and the neglected; but also (perhaps more importantly) for longevity, waiting and resistance. A fascinating and thought-provoking book.”
