Is a River Alive?
Other Available Formats
Overview
This large print edition features an easy-to-read larger type size while preserving the complete text of the original edition.
Is a River Alive? flows like water from the mountains to the sea, over three major journeys: The first is to northern Ecuador, where a miraculous cloud-forest and its rivers are threatened with destruction by gold-mining. The second is to the wounded rivers, creeks, and lagoons of southern India, where a desperate battle to save the lives of these waterbodies is underway. The third is to north-eastern Quebec, where a wild river -- the Mutehekau or Magpie -- is being defended from death by damming in a river-rights campaign. Passionate, immersive and revelatory, Is a River Alive? is a book that invites us radically to reimagine not only rivers but also life itself.
