This is a wonderful image, Matt - I love it! I think you’d enjoy - if you don’t know it already - Radical Intimacy by Sophie K Rosa. I’ve just started it. When I read Entangled Life (a while ago! This is making me want to revisit it!) I thought how deeply Queer the networks Merlin describes are. The symbiosis and resistance to binaries and heteronormativity in so many ways of the plant communities he shows us. And I think Sophie’s book brings this into a human context. So I think you’d find it really interesting. Thank you for the profound insights, as usual. J xx

Thank you, Jess! I love that point about Entangled Life - totally spot on. I don't know Radical Intimacy - sounds fab and I'll take a look!
