book cover

Investigative journalist Cal Flyn travels to some of the eeriest and most desolate places on Earth that due to war, disaster, disease, or economic decay, have been abandoned by humans. What she finds every time is an "island" of teeming new life: nature has rushed in to fill the void faster and more thoroughly than even the most hopeful projections of scientists. Islands of Abandonment is a tour through these new ecosystems, in all their glory, as sites of unexpected environmental significance, where the natural world has reasserted its wild power and promise.

We will be meeting in person at the Nature Learning Center in Albany. However, there is also a Zoom link option for those unable to join in person.
