[ Large Image ] | Branches Over Ripples: A Waterside Journal Brian Bartlett 2017 / Books & reading, Natural Essays / $29.95 9781554471782 / Trade paper / 272 pp Over two years, author and amateur naturalist Brian Bartlett sat down beside various bodies of water (bays, rivers, streams, lakes, waterfalls) to record his impressions, capturing both sensuous details of natural phenomena and reflections on his life and reading. Making a virtue of leisurely digression, Bartlett’s experiment in plein-air writing wanders beyond everyday personal journal-keeping into a meditation on the rich connections between the seemingly disparate experiences of our days, and on the enduring value of indulging our curiosity.
