*THE MILLION-COPY GLOBAL BESTSELLER *WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE FOR FICTION* A wondrous, exhilarating novel about nine strangers brought together by an unfolding natural catastrophe. 'It changed how I thought about the Earth and our place in it' Barack Obama An artist inherits a hundred years of photographic portraits, all of the same doomed American chestnut. A hard-partying undergraduate in the late 1980s electrocutes herself, dies, and is sent back into life by creatures of air and light. A hearing- and speech-impaired scientist discovers that trees are communicating with one another. An Air Force crewmember in the Vietnam War is shot out of the sky, then saved by falling into a banyan. This is the story of these and five other strangers, each summoned in different ways by the natural world, who are brought together in a last stand to save it from catastrophe.

Excellent book for all of us who love forests and feel good around trees, but maybe don't know what forests and trees do for us, without our asking or input. Terrific writing, with large cast of characters (including the trees) and well drawn out story lines. Would recommend highly!! Loved the science, and look forward to reading more by this author.

Must-read
This book not only tells an excellent and compelling story, but it folds in an encyclopedic amount of eco-facts about man's relationship to and consumption of one of Nature's most vital resources-- trees. It is, at turns, maddening, tragic and hopeful. A certain wake-up call.
