Summary/Abstract: Indian writer and poet, Sumana Roy is one the authors who lends her voice to the plants, sharing her passion for trees with those who see the world as a fascinating arboreal figure. Published in 2017 in New Delhi by Aleph Book Company, reprinted in 2021 by Yale University Press, her book How I Became a Tree, a work of non-fiction, is an exquisite example of what it means to engage with the world in an arboreal logic, perceiving trees as sentient and dynamic entities.
