"A bold and glorious book . . . brilliantly crafted at the level of the sentence and image, adventurous in its forms and tones, and its themes—memory, love, loss, care, value—are as embracing and urgent as they come. It’s magnificent."—Robert Macfarlane, author of Is a River Alive?
My Wild City uncovers the wild creatures, ecological histories, and deep sense of meaning that can be found in any city—and indeed, any place—in the world.
In My Wild City, acclaimed nature writer Neha Sinha takes us on an unforgettable journey through the hidden wildernesses of the bustling metropolis of Delhi, India, where she finds as much natural splendor in her urban environment as one would expect from a rural countryside. Exploring her city over many days and nights, Neha traces memories and the stories of extraordinary human lives, discovering centuries-old groves of trees and neglected rivers, mammal tracks and bird calls, worlds forgotten and then refound.
The result is a deeply personal yet universal book that reveals how we can find our way in the world through the exploration of place.
“Brilliant and nuanced explorations of curiosity and belonging. . . [Neha Sinha''s] boundless and inspiring enthusiasm for discovery bring into vivid focus the joys and heartbreaks of opening all our senses to the living world.”—David George Haskell, biologist and two-time Pulitzer-finalist author of How Flowers Made our World
