The Common Good Book Club discusses "Things That Are" by Amy Leach

“Every
sentence in Things That Are is as pure and fanciful as frost patterns on a
window Pane.”–The Rumpus

A
series of essays that progress from the tiniest Earth dwellers to far-flung
celestial bodies—considering everything from the similarity of gods to donkeys,
to the connection of exploding stars and exploding sea cucumbers—to rekindle
our communion with the wild world. Concerned at once with realms animal and
human, phenomenal and cosmic, the contents expand and confound the reader’s
senses in delightful ways.
