The experimental novel “The Nature Book” is entirely made up of descriptions of the natural world, which are copied from canonical novels and spliced together in oddly mesmerizing combinations.
” entered the group chat. Mostly, though, distinction exists as uneasy intuition of a shift. An oddly off-kilter voice, the voice of the book, arises.
“The Nature Book” is, at times, maddening; I wanted it to be more slender, more controlled, less . . . wild. I missed people; I missed our stories. But I came to feel that time spent wandering in the book, even when I felt frustrated or lost, was of value; it was like time spent wandering through unfamiliar terrain. We go to a wilderness to test ourselves and to experience an environment indifferent to our presence, which can help us recontextualize our place in the world.
Part of what’s moving about our attempts to create a wilderness entirely separate from us, both in fiction and in the natural world, is that such attempts are impossible: we create the language, and our environmental impact now permeates even the remotest regions, including Antarctica and the spot on the planet farthest from all land, Point Nemo, in the South Pacific Ocean. No true separation is achievable without our extinction—and after that, our voices are silent.
