In this remarkable and often unsettling book, Sumana Roy gives us a new vision of what it means to be human in the natural world. \'I was tired of speed\', she writes, \'I wanted to live to Tree time.\' Besides wanting to emulate the spacious, relaxed rhythm of trees, she is drawn to their non-violent ways of being, how they tread lightly upon the earth.
Increasingly disturbed by the violence, hate, insincerity, greed and selfishness of her kind, the author is drawn to the idea of becoming a tree.
