In Underland Robert Macfarlane delivers an epic exploration of the Earth's underworlds as they
exist in myth literature memory and the land itself. Traveling through the dizzying expanse
of geologic time-from prehistoric art in Norwegian sea caves to the blue depths of the
Greenland ice cap to a deep-sunk hiding place where nuclear waste will be stored for 100 000
years to come-Underland takes us on an extraordinary journey into our relationship with
darkness burial and what lies beneath the surface of both place and mind. Global in its
geography and written with great lyricism Underland speaks powerfully to our present moment.
At once ancient and urgent this is a book that will change the way you see the world.
