Description

Tracing the life of the plants and animals of Forrestdale Lake through the six seasons of the local indigenous people, the first part of Black Swan Lake presents a wetlands calendar over a yearly cycle of the rising, falling and drying waters of this internationally important wetland in south-western Australia.

The second part of this book considers issues and explores themes from the first part, including a cultural history of the seasons and the black swan.

Black Swan Lake is a book of nature writing and environmental history and philosophy arising from living in a particular place with other beings.

The book is a guide to living simply and sustainably with the earth in troubled times and places by making and maintaining a strong attachment and vital connection to a local place and its flora and fauna.

Local places and their living processes sustain human and other life on this living earth.
