Among the most celebrated and beloved novels of 2021, Anthony Doerr’s gorgeous third novel is a triumph of imagination and compassion, a soaring story about children on the cusp of adulthood in worlds in peril, who find resilience, hope—and a book. In Cloud Cuckoo Land, Doerr has created a magnificent tapestry of times and places that reflects our vast interconnectedness—with other species, with each other, with those who lived before us, and with those who will be here after we’re gone.

Something was coming. Arlo felt certain about that. For Arlo Finch and the Rangers of Pine Mountain Company, summer camp is more than canoeing and hiking. It's also a chance to search for ancient forest spirits and discover mysterious messages encoded in tree bark. But when Arlo and his best friends Indra and Wu stumble upon clues about the long-lost Yellow Patrol, Arlo uncovers a stunning history that leads right back to his very own family.

Awesome coed scouting magic. I’m so happy our family found this story for our spring break drive and now our COVID weekend hikes in the nearby woods in county parks.

The grid is an accident of history and of culture, in no way intrinsic to how we produce, deliver and consume electrical power. Yet this is the system the United States ended up with, a jerry-built structure now so rickety and near collapse that a strong wind or a hot day can bring it to a grinding halt. The grid is now under threat from a new source: renewable and variable energy, which puts stress on its logics as much as its components.

Good overview and very up to date
Revisado: 10-21-16
What did you love best about The Grid?
I loved how up to date this book is and how it explains the electrical grid in a post-deregulation world. The chapters about early grid history and the Cater years were my favorites.
Any additional comments?
The first chapter was an overview that seemed a little too sensational and a little too flowery in it's language. Then the author hits her stride in the second chapter and it only gets better from there.
