Birnam Wood

by
Eleanor Catton

published in

2023
Cover art
November 15, 2023 Andrew C says:
Catton maps the fault lines between her characters, and within the world, with unsparing clarity. This wild, messy allegory is an unstoppable read.
The founder of a guerrilla gardening group that plants crops on roadsides, parks and neglected yards fights an enigmatic billionaire over a parcel of land.

Andrew C reading a book

Andrew C

I'm an adult services librarian and I seem to find a new book for my reading list around every corner. Just don't count on my reading them all, since I like to take my sweet time becoming fully immersed in each story and subject (whether fictional, historical or technical) once I'm hooked. Otherwise, you'll find me cartooning, dreaming up new stories and hitting the trails of Ohio for more hiking and nature-watching.
