Nature’s Narratives: Smoke and Ashes: Opium’s Hidden Histories

January 8, 2025 @ 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm

Nature’s Narratives is the monthly book discussion group for Scott Arboretum & Gardens. Join fellow garden enthusiasts and book lovers to discuss books about plants, nature, and the environment.

Author Amitav Ghosh traces the horticultural, cultural, economic, and social history of opium in this part memoir, part history book.

Participants are encouraged, but not required, to read each month’s selection prior to the discussion. Discussions are led by horticulturist and book-lover Elizabeth Haegele and participants are welcome to share or simply listen.

Registration is free, but required to receive the Zoom meeting link.
