boarding schools don't prepare students for the real world, what's new
A friend asked what the book was about and I, only having made it through the first couple of pages, said “Oh it's a family saga told from the point of view of a tree.” I couldn't have been more wrong.
This book is more than anything about time, and how things work at different speeds. The human characters in the book occupy the understory in which a majority of the book is set, but they've discovered that the world is meant to work in hundreds and thousands of years instead. It's a sobering read, but a worthwhile one.
It's absolutely a one sided book, but its told from the side that rarely gets its full story told in our modern capital driven society
