🇵🇸 FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸
Important and painful history. The author describes the changes he witnesses to his beloved Palestinian hillside, near his home of Ramallah. His perspective is that of a lawyer, working on land settlement cases between Israel and Palestine; a rambler, who finds spiritual peace through long walks; and above all, a Palestinian, raised by survivors of a Nakba and amid the painful realities of settler colonialism.
Published in 2008, the atrocities described in this book seem to pale in comparison to the bombing of every school and hospital in Gaza, displacement, mass murder, and fatal starvation of millions of Palestinians over the past 2 years. That doesn’t mean that they aren’t atrocities or that they are less important to learn about.
I was disgusted to learn of a Zionist settlement that did not have a sewage processing system, and just dumped all their sewage down the hill creating an open-air sewer on the farms owned by Palestinians. 😒😦
Reading this book definitely didn’t alleviate the sense of helplessness, but it did provide relevant historical context and a chronology of the expanded settlements.

where do i even start? should i start with the authors pseudoscientific conclusion that there is a biologically justifiable reasoning to why women are undervalued? Or with the fact the author completely ignores the centuries of indigenous history that predates the industrial development of the global north? aside from when he refers to people in the global south as ‘primitives’ and ‘tribal shamans’
im not surprised this was required reading during my sixth form years and that it’s so highly acclaimed, because this book is the most whitewashed, capitalist, westernised version of world history i’ve ever read: of course it appeals to the imperial core.

1,000,000 ⭐️ (and I will physically fight the current “rating” system to make that official).
This book completely wrecked me in the best way. Think Queer Ecology meets a deep, aching dive into the forests of New York (my old romping grounds) and it hit every nerve ending I have. It’s guttural, emotional, and for someone who never cries while reading, I was full on sobbing. Multiple times.
It reminded me that nature is not just beautiful, it’s fleeting. It’s something we must connect/reconnect with, protect, and preserve. This story wasn’t just a love letter to the wild, it was a rallying cry. And it wasn’t just about ecology, it was about queer identity, about community, about finding your people and finding yourself tangled up in the roots of something bigger.
I came out of this book feeling cracked open, reminded of what matters. Nature matters. Queer joy and rage and community matter. And yeah, I’m not speechless, clearly, but I am changed. 😭

Steve Brusatte’s ability to blend detailed scientific discoveries with entertaining anecdotes and accessible language is rare. I loved this book! 🦕
