We Love New Books: Forager with Michelle
Manage episode 380350649 series 2325039
We're back with yet another special literary edition! For this bonus episode, we're celebrating the recent launch of the book "Forager: Field Notes for Surviving a Family Cult." It's out now in bookstores and on Amazon.
The author, Michelle, was raised in an end-times group that was started by her grandfather in the 1930s.
As survivalists in an organization referred to as “The Field,” her family lived in isolation on a mountain, where they foraged for food and viewed basic comforts as a sin. Michelle endured illness, abuse, hunger and neglect before finding solace in nature and education.
Now a professor of journalism, she lives a comfortable life in Southern California but still enjoys using her knowledge of edible plants to forage in her surroundings. Her book, which was released in March, discusses her childhood as well as how to forage through nature for what provides sustenance.
In this interview, we speak to Michelle about her life, writing a book about it and how she got through some of her most challenging times.
