Ormson’s essays are humble, loving, and grounding, timely reminders that the world is not so shallow as the one sold on television . . . like the tangled roots of trees, his words reveal visible and invisible sensory connections: heartbeats, a drum circle, like the archetypical pleasure of a warm fire on a cold night.” Kathleen Heideman, Marquette, Michigan
