Birdsplaining - by Jasmine Donahaye (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

In pursuit of moments of feeling 'sharply alive' and confronting fear of the body's betrayals, Birdsplaining is focused unapologetically on the uniqueness of women's experience of nature and constraints placed upon it. Sometimes bristling, always ethical, it upends familiar ways of seeing the natural world.
