Overview
In Sightlines, Kathleen Jamie reports from the fieldāfrom her native Scottish ābyways and hillsā to the frigid Arctic in fourteen enthralling essays. She dissects whatever her gaze falls uponāvistas of cells beneath a hospital microscope, orcas rounding a headland, the aurora borealis lighting up the frozen sea. In so doing, she questions what, exactly, constitutes ānature,ā and upends the idea that it is always picturesque. Written with precision, subtlety, and wry humor, Sightlines urges the reader: āKeep looking, even when thereās nothing much to see.ā
