Lost in the Woods: Joy of Not Knowing Where You Are (Zine)

Zine, published by Microcosm This gentle nature memoir with an anti-capitalist perspective will soothe you, make you think, and make you want to get up and go for a walk in the forest. The current trend in nature writing memoirs shows nature as a tool for healing grief and trauma; understandable, but naturalist Emma Alice Johnson thoughtfully challenges the idea that nature's primary value is as a healer/therapist or any kind of resource for us to exploit. Instead of a transactional and capitalist and one-sided relationship, she approaches nature as something that makes us part of it rather than the other way around; we aren't separate at all, and it's there with us whether or not we need anything from it.
