Explore the many ways we live and think alongside birds in With a Bird: A Reader on Avian Kinship. From Netherlands-based publishing house Onomatopee, this fascinating little book is filled with a collection of cross-disciplinary writings and imagery that each examine our winged friends through a different lens. Within these pages, you’ll find personal essays, folklore, critical research, ancestral memories, ornithological history, speculative fiction and visual art — a diverse gathering of works that together bring to light these creatures’ own histories, desires and forms of knowing. Readers will come away with a greater understanding of humankind’s fragile and often-overlooked relationships with birds across myth, science, migration and dream, as well as a new appreciation for the species’ irreplaceable role in our world. A must-read for bird- and nature-lovers, With a Bird is a beacon of light in a time of climate breakdown and ecological grief. With its striking cover art and vibrant, canary-yellow hue, it’s also sure to spark conversation wherever you bring it.
