Williams, Terry Tempest Refuge : An Unnatural History of Family and Place (Vintage)
Vintage September 1, 19 0-679-74024-4 / 9780679740247 Paperback Very Good
The only constants in nature are change and death. Terry Tempest Williams, a naturalist and writer from northern Utah, has seen her share of both. The pages of Refuge resound with the deaths of her mother and grandmother and other women from cancer, the result of the American government's ongoing nu clear-weapons tests in the nearby Nevada desert. You won't find the episode in the standard history textbooks; the Feds wouldn't admit to conducting t he tests until women and men in Utah, Nevada, and northwestern Arizona took the matter to court in the mid-1980s, and by then thousands of Americans h ad fallen victim to official technology. Parallel to her account of this de vastation, Williams describes changes in bird life at the sanctuaries dotti ng the shores of the Great Salt Lake as water levels rose during the unusua lly wet early 1980s and threatened the nesting grounds of dozens of species . In this world of shattered eggs and drowned shorebirds, Williams reckons with the meaning of life, alternating despair and joy.
