Finding profound moments in the natural world, M.A.C. Farrant offers an antidote to the distractions and pressures of modern life. Inspired by the Japanese practice of celebrating one feature in nature every five days, creating seventy-two seasons instead of four, Farrant embarks on a year-long mission to focus her attention on the small spellbinding changes around her. With her signature humour, she skilfully blends observations, meditations, literary references, memoir, essay-ettes and arcane facts as she explores the natural world. From homely weeds to majestic trees and the animals that cross her path, Farrant shares her deep noticing of the changes of the seasons and along the way we learn with her how to slow down and experience the world with awe and wonder.

M.A.C. (Marion) Farrant is well-known for her acerbic wit and laugh-out-loud humour. She has been writing and publishing since the 1980s including 20 works of fiction, non-fiction and memoir; two produced plays, countless book reviews for the Vancouver Sun and The Globe & Mail; and over a dozen chapbooks. Her 2021 non-fiction book, One Good Thing, was a BC Bestseller. Farrant has won the Victoria Book Prize and her books have been nominated for numerous awards including the Commonwealth Writer's Prize, Ethel Wilson fiction prize, ReLit Award, Van City Book Prize and two nominations for the Victoria Book Prize. She has also been a finalist for two Jessie Richardson theatre awards and the Gemini Awards for the Bravo short film adaptation of her story " Rob's Guns & Ammo."
