K.Linda Kivi has been passionately exploring our human connection to land through her many books, both fiction and creative documentary. Raised in an Estonian refugee family in Toronto, Ontario, she moved to the Columbia Mountains of British Columbia twenty years ago. She is also an avid naturalist, a wilderness explorer and a gardener. She lives on a land co-op in the Kootenay River valley.
The Inner Green: Exploring Home in the Columbia Mountains (2005), was written collaboratively with Eileen Delehanty Pearkes. Combining art with science to portray the natural history, ecology and beauty of the Columbia Mountains of BC, these literary narratives are popular with both locals and visitors to the region alike. The authors have delved into their connections with place and captured the essence of the Inland Temperate Rainforest ecosystem. 224 pages.
