And it's nature writing. A uni professor I'm friends with said my piece was "truly excellent" and that I had found my voice. Nature writing can really be some of the best literature out there. Do you agree?

Do you know the Peregrine by AJ Bakery?

I've actually felt more enlightened and happy reading Loren Eiseley than any philosopher

Well, I started reading and found it quite hard (I'm ESL), so can't share any thoughts. Maybe I'll try it again soon.

Try Gilbert White, Kathleen Jamie or Richard Powers for prose.
Ted Hughes, Robert Hass, Wordsworth for poets

Yes it's based and rare in this modern age for all the same reasons as it is worthy.

Here is an incredibly based and rare book. Written by Eugene Marias, South African opioid-addict naturalist, who spent many, many hours (in what we might imagine as a certain soft concentration) observing the comings and goings and ways of life of termites. The book was later plagiarised by a Belgian Nobel Laurate, and Marias ultimately committed suicide.

It's very good. It's very, very good. Check out Barry Lopez and John McPhee too.
