Description

Abel flees into the Guyana jungle and meets Rima, a mysterious girl who lives with the forest and speaks with birds, then follows her search for a lost people through beauty, danger, and a world that cannot bear her innocence. Love and wildness share one fragile path. Spoken as when green mansions still ask what paradise costs when difference is hunted down.

Author

W. H. Hudson (1841–1922) wrote as if the natural world were speaking through him — birds, grasslands, forests, and the human longing to belong among them. Raised in Argentina and long resident in England, he brought New World memory into English nature writing with uncommon freshness.
