“The precipitating causes of my writing of the following pages are many, and I don't know what they all are. But a more immediate cause is a program I saw on public television some months ago in which a man was showing films of animals that had been caught in traps. The films showed foxes, raccoons, minks, rabbits, etc. flailing in the air, desperately trying to escape these snares. It was such horrific suffering that I was witnessing, such utter soulless cruelty that was being inflicted on these innocent animals for the furs that could be sold as coats or adornments of collars, that I could barely stand to watch. But if these animals were going through such horrors, I thought I could at least bear witness to the hell they were going through. A day or two later I wrote a little poem about it called 'Cruel Irony' in the expression of some of my feelings,” author Lorraine Grzyb writes.
“Spirit of Nature Versus Exploitation” elicits awe for the beauty of nature around us while also examining the decline of our humanity. Kingdoms of nature lose ground--species of animals and plants go extinct, and air, soil, and water become increasingly poisoned.
The book tells us that it is not too late to recognize that humanity is also dependent on nature. We are subjects of its dominion and play a part in maintaining life on this planet. Loraine engrosses readers with thought-provoking narratives that will make us ponder how we are destroying nature and its inhabitants. She instills a valuable lesson that will preserve nature and humanity. After all, what's good about progress if we no longer have the planet.
