Tree

Our guest on this program was Melina Watts, who has written a fascinating novel called Tree, a piece of magical fiction written from the perspective of a Live Oak! We read the book and loved it, finding it engaging from both a spiritual and ecological perspective. She read several passages for us and helped us understand not only her purpose in writing the book, but the complexities of maintaining its point-of-view, from acorn to full grown oak. Along with telling us the oak's story, Melina includes fascinating ecological details about the flora, fauna, and hardships of the Topanga valley. It is available from Amazon.
