In this dazzling book, biodiversity expert Tillon narrates the story of the tree he calls Quercus. Evoking the richness which is all around us, he reveals that Quercus is embedded in a network of ever-shifting relationships, from close alliances between plants and animals to battles between insects, birds and fungi.A book of ecology unlike any other, Being An Oak offers a tree-eyed view of life on earth.Translated by the award-winning translator Jessica Moore.
