How to Read a River
A short book about water, attention and returning.
About the book
Tomasz Bąk follows a river from source to sea, and finds a way of writing about attention, patience and the places we return to. Part essay, part field guide, part quiet manifesto.
How to Read a River is a book for anyone who has ever stood at the edge of moving water and stayed a little longer than they meant to.
“A river is not a line. It is a habit.”
