The Overstory

The Overstory by Richard Powers is like no other novel you have read - an epic tale where trees are main characters. It is likely the best book you will read this year and will change the way you think.

Via the stories of eight humans, this book tells the story of trees - the roles they play in our world, in our lives and in our future. But do not think this is a science textbook. This is storytelling at its best with great and flawed characters over generations.

I do not want to give anything away so buy your own copy and start reading today!
