UNSOLACED
Along the Way to All That Is
From the author of the enduring classic The Solace of Open Spaces, here is a wondrous meditation on how water, light, wind, mountain, bird, and horse have shaped her life and her understanding of a world besieged by a climate crisis.
Gretel Ehrlich's essay collection SOLACE OF OPEN SPACES has been a perennial seller since its original publication nearly 30 years ago.
UNSOLACED revisits the intentions and aspirations of her early work and returns to places she has sought as an anchor for her spirit, Hoping to catch a glimpse of herself along the way. Ehrlich recalls split-end strands of friendships spliced to new loves, houses built and lived in, conversations that shifted the firmament. When traveling through Greenland and Japan, to the North Pole and the Channel Islands, while herding animals in Wyoming and Montana, one of our most intrepid and eloquent adventurers of the natural world searched for home.
Ehrlich's voice is a unique amalgam of poetry and science, her attention held fast by the vegetation and animals she cares for, the lyric exaltation of insight that gives both her and her readers an intimation of a greater whole.
GRETEL EHRLICH is the author of Facing the Wave, The Future of Ice, Heart Mountain, The Solace of Open Spaces, This Cold Heaven, and Unsolsced, among other works of nonfiction, fiction, and poetry. Ehrlich studied at Bennington College and UCLA film school. She divides her time between Montana and Hawaii.
