A journey to Ecuador’s rainforest, this part-memoir, part-poetry compilation reflects upon the effects of environmental destruction in that nation while simultaneously recounting the author’s personal experiences as a health professional there. From traditional healing ceremonies performed by shamans to the knowledge gained from Shuar and Quecha Indians regarding the degrading impact of oil-company drilling and local forest cutting, this account shares the lessons learned from an inspiring group of people.

Gary Margolis is the executive director of College Mental Health Services and an associate professor of English and American Literatures at Middlebury College. He is the author of various books, including Below the Falls and Fire in the Orchard. He lives in Cornwall, Vermont.
