I am possessive about the Tigli trees along our street. Especially their leaves. I moved to Piemonte to learn how to listen to the trees and by the time I arrive in Riva, when I was really honing my skills; they leave me. Every single year.
Autumn comes along, exposing their ebony skin, stark elegant figures in winter. They are gorgeous and I cannot wait until my trees are given the gift of green again. Respecting the seasons as I do; I must admit – their winter ensemble is something to see.
Trees being perhaps the most tangible and most enchanting manifestation of fractals in nature. A never ending pattern of beauty. I need these leaves, after all, they listen to me too. They protect us from the Italian summer. As a Seattelite who grew up with grey skies for many months of the year, this is but one of their many benefits.
Looking forward to reading a book about trees, coming out soon, just in time for mine to leave me:
ABOUT TREES is the first book in Broken Dimanche Press’s series: Parapoetics – a Literature beyond the Human. Recognizing a crisis of representation as our species adapts to life in the Anthropocene, About Trees considers our relationship with language, landscape, and perception.
The result is an astonishing fusion of storytelling and art, which celebrates trees and our understanding of them, their past and their future, their potential and their ubiquity. It is a book to leaf through, again and again.
