Katherine May shares stories of her own struggles with work, family, and the aftereffects of pandemic, particularly feelings of overwhelm as the world rushes to reopen. Craving a different way to live, May begins to explore the restorative properties of the natural world.
What The Reviewers Say
Another beautiful, determinedly uplifting volume that manages to transcend typical self-help books.
May is no dilettante and these are not hobbies; she is thoughtful and serious in her approach to experiencing the natural world in order to get back on her footing. Wonder, she knows, is all around us but we must be open to it..
It’s hard to pin down a feeling defined by ambivalence, but Katherine May articulates post-COVID numbness in Enchantment: Awakening Wonder in an Anxious Age with precision and forthrightness.
Enchantment: Awakening Wonder in an Anxious Age offers similar meditative pleasures as her previous collection.
