To Stephanie Krzywonos, Antarctica is a place to search for answers\u2014and something larger than herself.<br><br>Hungry for the sublime and haunted over her best friend\u2019s tragic death, Stephanie leaves her entire life behind to live in Antarctica as an ordinary worker and tests the limits of survival. Over six polar summers and one astonishing winter, she encounters adorable penguins, colossal glaciers, and whiteout storms. In old explorers\u2019 huts, the traces of ghosts show the extremes to which people are willing to go to find peace. In this rare account of an Antarctic winter, the sun disappears for over four months, and Stephanie reckons with Antarctica\u2019s complicated past alongside her own grief and desire to live\u2014all while auroras, the moon, sunrise, and darkness itself nourish her. Antarctica has come to symbolize despair and hope in a rapidly warming planet. Who truly belongs there?

Of enduring fascination are the four material elements: Earth, Air, Water, and Fire. All living beings owe their own existence and well-being to these everlasting movements of matter and flows of energy. Inspired by these powerful categories, the <em>Elementals<\/em> series asks: What can the vital forces of Earth, Air, Water, and Fire teach us about being human in a more-than-human world?<\/p>\n<p><em>Elementals<\/em> explores how people from various cultures across the planet have worked with these powerful forces of change and regeneration to shape landscapes and deepen personal and place-based relationships. More than 90 contributors\u2015including Tyson Yunkaporta, Lyanda Fern Lynn Haupt, Sean Hill, David George Haskell, and Robin Wall Kimmerer\u2015invite readers to consider the ways the elementals flow through our relations with a more-than-human world.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text -->        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                    <\/div><!-- .accordion-content -->\n        <\/li>\n        <\/ul>\n\n<\/div><!-- \/module accordion --><!-- module text -->\n<div  class=\"module module-text tb_16os658   \" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div  class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n        <h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hachettebookgroup.com\/titles\/cara-giaimo\/atlas-obscura-wild-life\/9781523514410\/?lens=workman-publishing-company\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Atlas Obscura: Wild Life<\/em> | Contributor<\/a><\/h2>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text --><!-- module text -->\n<div  class=\"module module-text tb_5jgt978   \" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div  class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n        <h3>Workman, September 2024<\/h3>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text --><!-- module accordion -->\n<div  class=\"module module-accordion tb_ha2a255 \" data-behavior=\"toggle\" data-lazy=\"1\">\n    \n    <ul class=\"ui module-accordion   transparent\">\n            <li>\n            <div class=\"accordion-title tf_rel\">\n                <a href=\"#acc-ha2a255-0\" class=\"tb_title_accordion\" aria-controls=\"acc-ha2a255-0-content\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n                    <i class=\"accordion-icon\"><svg  class=\"tf_fa tf-ti-plus\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><use href=\"#tf-ti-plus\" xlink:href=\"#tf-ti-plus\"><\/use><\/svg><\/i>                    <i class=\"accordion-active-icon tf_hide\"><svg  class=\"tf_fa tf-ti-close\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><use href=\"#tf-ti-close\" xlink:href=\"#tf-ti-close\"><\/use><\/svg><\/i>                    <span class=\"accordion-title-wrap\">\"An Explorer's Guide to the World's Living Wonders\"<\/span>                <\/a>\n            <\/div><!-- .accordion-title -->\n            <div id=\"acc-ha2a255-0-content\" data-id=\"acc-ha2a255-0\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"accordion-content tf_hide tf_clearfix\">\n                        <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_subrow themify_builder_sub_row tf_w col_align_top tb_col_count_1 tb_x5wj255\">\n                <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_column sub_column tb_3q5i255 first\">\n                    <!-- module text -->\n<div  class=\"module module-text tb_6l8a255   \" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div  class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n        <div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element \">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container\">From the bestselling authors of<i>\u00a0Atlas Obscura\u00a0<\/i>and<i>\u00a0Gastro Obscura\u00a0<\/i>comes a nature book like no other\u2014a dazzling, over-the-top collection of the world\u2019s most extraordinary wild species that takes you to all seven continents and beyond.

Drawing from international research on river crossings, boat dwelling, wild swimming, sea fishing, and drought impacts, and navigating urban waters, glacial lagoons, barrier reefs and disappearing tarns, the collection illuminates the ways that we live with and without water, and explores how we can think and write with water on land. Water offers a way of attending to emerging and enduring social and ecological concerns and making sense of them in lively and creative ways. By approaching Living with water from different disciplinary and methodological perspectives, and drawing on research from around the world, this collection opens up discussions that reinvigorate and renew previously landlocked debates.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text -->        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                    <\/div><!--
