At once joyous and somber, this thoughtful gathering of new and selected essays spans Kathleen Dean Moore's distinguished career as a tireless advocate for environmental activism in the face of climate change.
In this meditation on the music of the natural world, Moore celebrates the call of loons, howl of wolves, bellow of whales, laughter of children, and shriek of frogs, even as she warns of the threats against them. Each group of essays moves, as Moore herself has been moved, from celebration to lamentation to bewilderment and finally to the determination to act in defense of wild songs and the creatures who sing them.
Music is the shivering urgency and exuberance of life ongoing. In a time of terrible silencing, Moore asks, who will forgive us if we do not save nature's songs?

There is also an interesting juxtaposition of feeling like you are seeing the world through a child's eyes- full of wonder, hope, and excitement. Only to be ripped away with a feeling of dispare, hopelessness, bitterness, and resentment - an adults view of what is happening to our world.
Very much like the movie Up in terms of contrast of perspectives. Grumpy older gentlemen in contrast to the boyent energy of the young man.
Overall. not may favorite read. Book was better than the audio book in my opinion because of the vocal fluctuations of the reader in the audio book. Grated on my nerves and I definitely sped up the reading just to hurry and get through it.
