This is my first book read this year. On an unseasonably warm winter's day, after a walk in the arboretum, I sat in their library and read this book from cover to cover. This is a re-read and I was reminded of how much I loved her writing. She evokes a sense of wonder at the natural world that I feel each time I take a walk outside but I wish I could write like her. She writes about the wonder of lichen, moss, shrubs and trees and the beauty of time passing. How naming things can help but nature is more than names and no matter what the stage of one's life one can still seek joy and receive it from a simple walk outside. A lovely read to begin the new year.

It took me about ten pages to get into this book. I think this man writes the way I think- tangentially and in a most charming manner. I am sure this book isn't for every body- it sure is the book for me. Though I didn't totally love the premise of the premise of the book- going on the hunt for a Greenland shark but the whole idea of two grown men setting out to do this and the complicated quest to hunt this odd, scary creature is a vehicle for me to learn too many scientific facts about geology, evolution, fishing, history, art and so much more. There is also some understated personal Nordic drama. I like this strange intersection of memoir, Nature and the quest to go do something bizarre and big.
