Through the Trees

Through the Trees

Courageous truth-telling in an era of mainstream censorship, propaganda, and gaslighting.

From draconian Covid policies to the illegitimate rule of Woke, Nowick Gray’s biweekly column A Forest Through the Trees (in the Salt Spring, BC Islands Marketplace, 2021-25), inspired local readers to resist the forces of dystopia and find resilience in our shared humanity.

Unraveling the yarns of groupthink, these essays are enlivened with pithy humor, inspired by the living poetry of nature, and dedicated to an apolitical philosophy of common sense.

Core concerns of survival and solidarity are brought to light filtered through forest wisdom, with appeal to the enduring qualities of human nature, affirming life and the spirit of freedom.

Wonderfully thoughtful and inspiring pieces… heartfelt analogies that give us space to breathe, reflect and reconnect with our world in a more
purposeful, joyful way. —Sandi Poystila, publisher, Islands Marketplace
