"The
best novel ever written about trees, and really just one of the best novels,
period." ―Ann Patchett
The Overstory, winner of the
2019 Pulitzer Prize in Fiction, is a sweeping, impassioned work of activism and
resistance that is also a stunning evocation of―and paean to―the natural world.
From the roots to the crown and back to the seeds, Richard Powers’s twelfth novel
unfolds in concentric rings of interlocking fables that range from antebellum
New York to the late twentieth-century Timber Wars of the Pacific Northwest and
beyond. There is a world alongside ours―vast, slow, interconnected,
resourceful, magnificently inventive, and almost invisible to us. This is the
story of a handful of people who learn how to see that world and who are drawn
up into its unfolding catastrophe.
