Vuelos vespertinos (Colección Argumentos (Editorial Anagrama) #564)
Par Helen Macdonald. 2021
"In Vesper Flights Helen Macdonald brings together a collection of her best loved essays, along with new pieces on topics…
ranging from nostalgia for a vanishing countryside to the tribulations of farming ostriches to her own private vespers while trying to fall asleep. Meditating on notions of captivity and freedom, immigration and flight, Helen invites us into her most intimate experiences: observing songbirds from the Empire State Building as they migrate through the Tribute of Light, watching tens of thousands of cranes in Hungary, seeking the last golden orioles in Suffolk's poplar forests. She writes with heart-tugging clarity about wild boar, swifts, mushroom hunting, migraines, the strangeness of birds' nests, and the unexpected guidance and comfort we find when watching wildlife. By one of this century's most important and insightful nature writers, Vesper Flights is a captivating and foundational book about observation, fascination, time, memory, love and loss and how we make sense of the world around us." -- Goodreads

Naturaleza sagrada: cómo podemos recuperar nuestro vínculo con el mundo natural
Par Karen Armstrong. 2022
"Since the beginning of time, humankind has looked upon nature and seen the divine. In the writings of the great…
thinkers across religions, the natural world inspires everything from fear, to awe, to tranquil contemplation; God, or however one defined the sublime, was present in everything. Yet today, even as we admire a tree or take in a striking landscape, we rarely see nature as sacred. In this short but deeply powerful book, the best-selling historian of religion Karen Armstrong re-sacralizes nature for modern times. Drawing on her vast knowledge of the world's religious traditions, she vividly describes nature's central place in spirituality across the centuries. In bringing this age-old wisdom to life, Armstrong shows modern readers how to rediscover nature's potency and form a connection to something greater than ourselves." -- Provided by publisher
Los niños del Amazonas: 40 días perdidos en la selva
Par Daniel Coronell. 2023
"I tried really hard and I didn't get an explanation. After a forty-day search performed by some of the world's…
best-trained soldiers in the matter of survival and jungle tracking, the four missing children happened to appear barely 30 feet away from where the shaman said they would be. It all happened under the influence of yage, a sacred drink that, according to Amazonian cultures, heals all illnesses and gives you dream-like visions for a few minutes, allowing you to enter the depths of your mind or travel freely through time and space. In the interviews done for the book, the President of Colombia, Gustavo Petro, told me that he tried yage in his youth on two separate occasions. The first time he learned that caring for nature should be his main reason to live. The second time he received the chilling vision of his own death. This is also the story of abused children who found a chance for happiness following a tragedy; of indigenous communities living in poverty, and yet owners of the giant lung that could save humanity; of a general who won the most crucial battle of his life without firing a single shot, and the story of a tracking dog that picked up the footprints of the surviving children, but couldn't find its way out of the jungle." -- Provided by publisher
