The Overstory by Richard Powers
Manage episode 261531036 series 115307
In this episode, I'm reading the entire first chapter of The Overstory (2018), the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by Richard Powers.
The Overstory is a book about man's relationship to nature, as seen through the eyes of trees. In this reading, you'll hear the story of the Jorgen Hoel, who in the mid-1800s moves from Brooklyn to Iowa; starts a family, and happens to plant (what will become) one of the last remaining Chestnut Trees in America. Although the story is about Jorgen, as you'll see, it's really about the life of the tree and the many generations of people whose lives it touches.
