Acerca de este título

 From a New York Times bestselling nature writer comes a celebration of what goes on outside in the dark, from blooming moon gardens to nocturnal salamanders, from glowing foxfire and synchronous fireflies that blink in unison like an orchestra of light.

In this glorious celebration of the night, New York Times bestselling nature writer Leigh Ann Henion invites us to leave our well-lit homes, step outside, and embrace the dark as a profoundly beautiful part of the world we inhabit. Because no matter where we live, we are surrounded by animals that rise with the moon, and blooms that reveal themselves as light fades. Henion explores her home region of Appalachia, where she attends a synchronous firefly event in Tennessee, a bat outing in Alabama, and a moth festival in Ohio. In North Carolina, she finds forests alight with bioluminescent mushrooms, neighborhood trees full of screech owls, and valleys teeming with migratory salamanders. Along the way, Henion encounters naturalists, biologists, primitive-skills experts, and others who’ve dedicated their lives to cultivating relationships with darkness.

Every page of this lyrical book feels like an opportunity to ask: How did I not know about this before? For example, we learn that it can take hours, not minutes, for human eyes to reach full night vision capacity. And that there are thousands of firefly species on earth, many with flash patterns as unique as fingerprints. In an age of increasing artificial light, Night Magic focuses on the amazing biodiversity that still surrounds us after sunset. We do not need to stargaze into the distant cosmos or dive into the depths of oceans to find awe in the dark. There are dazzling wonders in our own backyards. And readers of World of Wonders, Entangled Life, and The Hidden Life of Trees will discover joy in Night Magic.

Reseñas de la crítica

Named a Best Book of the Year by Amazon, Science News, and Kirkus Reviews

Named a Most Anticipated/Recommended Book of the Season by the Washington Post, Library Journal, and Kirkus Reviews

A Fully Booked Podcast/Kirkus Reviews Editor's Pick
"A dazzling reminder of what it means to take stock of our planet's night wisdom, and a prescient reminder to let your vision ripen at night. And if you do—you'll understand why we need more evenings full of foxfire and ‘mothapaloozas.’ In this vivid book, Henion renders our night world with profound care and discovery. Prepare to be enchanted. Prepare to love the darkness.”
—Aimee Nezhukumatathil, New York Times bestselling author of World of Wonders
“A lyrical, fascinating story about exploring the secret world of darkness and the remarkable creatures within it . . . Henion writes with poetic grace.”—Kirkus Reviews
“Night Magic is an illuminating exploration of the dark. Beautifully written, often moving, and full of wonder.”
—Richard Louv, international bestselling author of Last Child in the Woods and Our Wild Calling
“Henion’s science-based book about the flora and fauna that adorn the nightscape is also a philosophical exploration of the role darkness plays in our lives . . . Culture tells us to 'step into the light,' but she asks what might happen if we pause in the darkness to witness what it offers . . . staying alert to the possibility of wonder.”—The Washington Post
"Lovely... truly inspired…and very clever... An appreciation of nature’s nocturnal organisms can help us reset our relationship with the night... That’s the gift of Night Magic. It may make you think differently about the night. I know it has for me."—Wall Street Journal

"Leigh Ann Henion has illuminated the natural treasures that live by night. Moths, fireflies, owls, and much more are brought to attention in these pages with the hope that we can put aside our fear of the dark and experience what happens during a full half of our stay on earth. Night Magic is a beautiful journey."

—Douglas W. Tallamy, New York Times bestselling author of Nature’s Best Hope and Bringing Nature Home
“A thrilling exploration of a world that waits for us behind the lights.”
—Tristan Gooley, New York Times bestselling author of The Lost Art of Reading Nature’s Signs and How to Read a Tree
“Brilliant. Leigh Ann Henion is an inspiring and wise guide not only to the biological marvels of night, but also to the communities of people who celebrate and protect the rich life of the dark. Beyond fear of the dark is wonder, vividly evoked in these pages.”—David George Haskell, author of Sounds Wild and Broken, The Songs of Trees, and The Forest Unseen
