Angela Pelster-Wiebe--On the Heart of an Essay The Wild Air Podcast

    • Books

Angela Pelster-Wiebe is the author of the acclaimed book “Limber”, a collection of essays loosely themed around different types of trees. If there is such a thing as a cult classic in nature writing, "Limber" might be one—it’s been described by reviewers as strange, startling and mystical. The stories combine memoir, nature writing, and moments that could be called magical realism. Angela brings that same mix of candour and spirituality to our conversation.
