Merritt R. Turetsky -- "Bogland," with Hillary Rosner

Merritt R. Turetsky will speak about and sign her new book, "Bogland," at Boulder Bookstore, with Hillary Rosner. Merritt R. Turetsky will speak about and sign her new book, Bogland: The Secret World That Defies Death and Protects Life, on Thursday, October 29th at 6:30pm, at Boulder Bookstore. She will be in conversation with Hillary Rosner for this special event. About the Book: Not quite land and not quite water, boglands have long been dismissed as wastelands—too sodden to farm, too perilous to cross, too unruly to be considered beautiful. Come closer, however, and a strange truth emerges: These wild, eerie landscapes stretch our minds, hold the history of humanity, and will shape the future of our planet. In Bogland, acclaimed ecologist Merritt R. Turetsky invites readers to discover the elusive magic and surprising power of these misunderstood places, where the boundaries blur between life and death, past and present, refuge and peril. The debut of an extraordinary nature writer, Bogland is an ode and a call to action: to defend bogs’ strangeness and stillness from rising destruction, to value them precisely for their refusal to conform, and to learn from them new ways to adapt, endure, and belong on our changing planet—before it’s too late. _______________ IMPORTANT TICKETING AND EVENT INFORMATION • Tickets are $5 (plus a small processing fee). • A coupon good for $5 off a copy of Bogland, or a purchase on the day of the event is included with your ticket.
