Animals Taught Me Everything

Résumé du livre

What can animals teach us about how to be human?

"Houston's heart and spirit worked on me like the strongest medicine. This is a book I desperately needed--grateful it fell into my hands!"
--MONA SUSAN POWER, A Council of Dolls

From Icelandic mares and Irish wolfhounds to elephants, leopards, hyena bitches, and a desert-adapted lioness named Charlie, Pam Houston has learned life's most important lessons from animals. How to play. How to rest. How to love. How to die. How to be present with the dying. How to be present with the living and with the Earth. How to find joy in the least likely places. How to find joy, literally, everywhere. With playful sincerity, Houston finds power and promise in the teachings of our fellow creatures and reminds us that the animals are here for us, every day and everywhere.
