Katherine Rundell Reihenfolge der Bücher

Svet nikdy nepotreboval zázraky tak veľmi, ako ich potrebuje práve teraz. Spisovateľka Katherine Rundellová nám prináša citlivý, poetický a vedecky precízny pohľad do sveta unikátnych živočíchov, ktoré by sme vo zvieracej ríši asi len ťažko prehliadli. Ich výnimočnosť však nie je vždy len pozitívom. Fascinujúce bytosti ako zlatí krtkovia, vombaty, ale aj bežnejšie, no o nič menej kúzelné stvorenia ako medvede alebo vlky, sú dnes na pokraji vyhynutia. Dostala ich tam ľudská poverčivosť, neznalosť a nekonečné fantazírovanie o benefitoch, ktoré nám ich lov a konzumácia mali priniesť. Dnes však vidíme, že to všetko boli len bludy a že sa musíme na tieto bytosti začať pozerať inak. Citlivejšie a s väčším rešpektom. To je cieľom tejto knihy – pripomenúť si, v akom výnimočnom a pestrom svete žijeme, ale aj to, že nemôžeme dopustiť, aby nám jeho poklady pretiekli pomedzi prsty.
