The book is breath-taking. A literary and morally compelling demonstration of what communion with non-human animals looks like, and in a manner that exposes the paucity and imaginative impoverishment of the usual animal rights rhetoric. -- Scott Stephens, Editor of the ABC Religion and Ethics Program and co-host of ABC RN Minefield
This may not be a book for everyones taste but for those of us who love non-human animals, as the author calls them, and believe deeply in animal rights, then you will be entranced and deeply moved by this beautiful memoir. -- Good Reading Magazine
If you want a book to give to a dear friend, dont look any further than The Grass Library by David Brooks, except that once you hold the book in your hands youll probably want to keep it. When I saw the cover and read the first page, I was hooked -- The Gleaner, November 2019 click here to read more.
I ADORED THIS BOOK, a touching, searching, and also very funny report on the ad-hoc sanctuary that Brooks and his partnera scholar of nonhuman-animal grief, T.put together when called on to give refuge to a ram, Henry, and a wether, Jonathan. -- A. Marie Houser, Faunary Press, September 2019
On the surface, The Grass Library tells a simple story. In the Blue Mountains, he begins to establish a sanctuary for wayward animals, most notably their dog Charlie and four sheep: Henry, Charlie, Orpheus, and Pumpkin. But in true essayist style, Brooks tells the reader theyre in for more than whats on the narrative surface -- this book isnt about veganism, or guilt, he writes, but ultimately and more simply its about discovery and wonder: wonder, and wondering. -- Jack Stanton, Mascara Literary Review, September 2019
