Hailed in the New York Times as “a naturalist who can unfurl a sentence with the breathless ease of a master angler\,” Robert Macfarlane brings his glittering style to a profound work of travel writing\, reportage\, and natural history. Is a River Alive? is a joyful\, mind-expanding exploration of an ancient\, urgent idea: that rivers are living beings who should be recognized as such in imagination and law.​ \nTea & cookies courtesy of the Friends of the Hanapēpē Public Library.​ \n\n​Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service for effective communication\, or a modification of policies or procedures to participate in a program\, service\, or activity should contact library staff as soon as possible. Advance requests 48 hours or more before the event are encouraged\, but not required.

The main character’s job is to burn books\, a job he relishes until he is shown a new perspective\, and realizes\, among other things\, that the apathy among screen-pacified masses is part of the problem.​ \nTea & cookies courtesy of the Friends of the Hanapēpē Public Library.​ \n\n​Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service for effective communication\, or a modification of policies or procedures to participate in a program\, service\, or activity should contact library staff as soon as possible. Advance requests 48 hours or more before the event are encouraged\, but not required.
