But what if, instead of being overwhelmed, we were to look for hope inthe smallest details? A dying moth falling against a kiss. A distracted lover’s hippressing into a table. A single carder bee, dying on the driveway of a suburbangarden in a forensic eye, Howells takes us on a journey through ordinary human livesand the extraordinary natural world we are in danger of losing. The carder beecarries the story of a colony, a species, and, ultimately, the fate of all life on mermaid weaves an almost beautiful tale of a tragic miscarriage. The magpie writes yearning letters to her lost lover. The brilliant kingfisher flits through the mind of a woman with dementia. Through each exacting portrait, we begin to understand something special, a language of bees, and discover for ourselves how intimately we are all connected and what the natural world is trying to tell us.
