Mushrooms: A beautiful book from Pulitzer Prize-winner Sylvia Plath

Sylvia Plath

Nudgers and shovers
In spite of ourselves.

Our kind multiplies:
We shall by morning
Inherit the earth . . .

Delve deep into the undergrowth and explore the underfoot world of mushrooms through the breathtaking words of Pulitzer Prize winner, Sylvia Plath. Discover their many colours and hues, their ability to break through any terrain and their determination to not be ignored. In her eyes, it is a world rooted in nature, resilience and womanhood.

With stunning illustrations from artist Aitch, this is a sumptuous book to be adored and treasured.

The perfect gift for lovers of poetry, nature and those who find beauty in the overlooked.
