Kendra Greene's \u003ci\u003eNo Less Strange or Wonderful\u003c\/i\u003e is a brilliant and generous meditation--on the complex wonder of being alive, on how to pay attention to even the tiniest (sometimes strangest) details that glitter with insight, whimsy, and deep humanity, if only we'd really look. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn twenty-six sparkling essays, illuminated through both text and image, Greene is trying to make sense--of anything, really--but especially the things that matter most in life: love, connection, death, grief, the universe, meaning, nothingness, and everythingness. Through a series of encounters with strangers, children, and animals, the wild merges with the domestic; the everyday meets the sublime. Each essay returns readers to our smallest moments and our largest ones in a book that makes us realize--through its exuberant language, its playful curation, and its delightful associative leapfrogging--that they are, in fact, one in the same.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eA.
