Books & Company presents Tamara Dean, author of Shelter and Storm, in conversation with Kim Suhr. Tamara Dean's quest to live lightly on the planet brought her to the Driftless Area of Wisconsin, a region untouched by glaciers, marked by steep hills and deeply carved valleys, capped with forests and laced with cold, spring-fed streams. She purchased a track of land and began living, exploring, and creating community while pursuing new and old ways to live lightly in the world. Dean’s boundless curiosity and gift for storytelling imbue these essays with urgency and a sense of adventure. Whether tracking down a rare, blue-glowing firefly, engineering a beaver-friendly waterway to appease a dying neighbor, or building a house of earthen blocks, Dean unites personal experience with science and history, presenting a perspective as informative as it is compelling. “In this remarkable collection of essays, Tamara Dean conveys the depth of our connection to the natural world with careful research and gentle words, bringing the Driftless area of Wisconsin to life. Shelter and Storm is regional literature at its finest. These smoothly flowing essays reveal both the character of the author and the character of the land in equal measure.” —Joan Maloof, author of Teaching the Purchase a copy of Shelter and Storm from Books & Company HERE. Tamara Dean has been camping, fishing, hiking, and gathering wild foods from an early age, led and inspired by her parents. Her essays and stories have been published in The American Scholar, The Georgia Review, the Guardian, One Story, Orion, and The Progressive, and she is author of The Human-Powered Home: Choosing Muscles over Motors. She teaches writing independently and through writing centers across the nation. Kim Suhr is author of the Close Call, and Nothing to Lose. She holds an MFA in fiction from the Solstice Program at Pine Manor College where she was the Dennis Lehane Fellow in 2013. Her writing has appeared in various publications.
