Meiburg’s writing soars, like his Cara-Cara, high, endless, diffuse, bound together with themes interwoven with human story, aeons upon aeons, shrinking down to from extinctions to astonishing expansions, curiosity, impossible appearances.

Brilliant merger of narrator and author, ecology and fiction. Listened to it again and again, partly to try to bring order, partly loving it. Deft characterization. Appropriately apocalyptic.

Author loves evolution, & describes its messiness, and takes us into many recent discoveries. Just heard chapters of transitions of whales between land & sea, & their evolution from—get this!—the Pygmy hippopotamus. He was often in the field, and describes some of his fellow explorers and their terrains & swamps. This field was more than dry old bones and dusty, it’s wet and fertile!

I listen to Audiobooks during the night: to learn and to sleep. I learned lots from it and I fall back asleep easily. For a simple dude like me, it’s exactly what I want. Now, to learn more re: Terrehonia, and find more books by the narrator.

Seemed like a summary of your life work? Gave a four for performance because some of your words or sentences endings were hard to understand. As a fellow 60s psychotherapist I appreciated your authenticity in reading your whole book for us. Terry & Deepak! Can you readers want free open interchanges in the home and be pro-patriarchy?

Exhaustive, brilliant, in amazing detail, describing thousand of greatly varied ant behaviors around the world. Colorful! Expressive but calm narrator. Slaves, parasites, disguises, murders, coups, mating, ants do all we do and more!

We’ve caught glimpses before of octopus awareness, but this author and colleagues went to their lairs daily for weeks at a tome and got to to know them as. Individuals on their own terms, with their own skill sets. I’ve listened through the book four times.
