| Publisher Description: In Wild Delicate Seconds, Charles Finn captures twenty-nine chance encounters with the everyday--and not so everyday--animals, birds, and insects of North America. There are no maulings or fantastic escapes in Finn's narratives--only stillness and attentiveness to beauty. With profundity, humor, and compassion, Finn pays homage to the creatures we share our world with --from black bears to bumble bees, mountain lions to muskrats--and, in doing so, touches on what it means to be human. |
