Song of the Cedars

A world first: This stunning introduction to Los Cedros Cloud Forest is told by internationally acclaimed author Robert Macfarlane, groundbreaking instrumentalist and composer Cosmo Sheldrake, and by the forest itself

This beautiful book is a vital act of nature activism in its own right.

Turn the elaborately illustrated pages to discover the extraordinary plants, animals, and fungi of Los Cedros Cloud Forest, one of the most biologically diverse habitats on Earth. Then, fold the pages out to create a grand panoramic scene that explores the delicate interconnectedness of nature.

Brought to you by the MOTH collective—an interdisciplinary group of world-class creatives and legal advocates who merge art and law to champion “more than human” rights—this book marks a publishing first: the Los Cedros Cloud Forest will have its moral rights asserted as a cocreator, the first time a natural being has been legally recognized in the publishing world.

Spectacular, innovative and timely, this book draws you into the magical natural world of the cloud forest, created in collaboration with the forest itself.
