I couldn’t put it down but didn’t want it to end.
It is a stunning, moving love story told in such vivid, alive and poetic prose you can smell the mud of the jungle and hear the symphony of animals coming off the page. THE PUMA YEARS is one of my favourite books of recent years. Jay Griffiths, author of WILD: AN ELEMENTAL JOURNEY and WHY REBEL It is not just astonishingly good as a book, but it brings to life the full earthy reality of the forests, its swamps and iridescence, its wild beauty and rottingness, while so poignantly articulating its destruction. It is a memoir, a love letter to a puma, and through that love comes the utter heartbreak of the forests. "THE PUMA YEARS is an utterly wonderful book. Jane Goodall, PhD, DBE, Founder of the Jane Goodall Institute & UN Messenger of Peace Engaging and inspiring-you will love this book.” I visited the sanctuary years ago-what a wonderful place, dedicated staff and passionate volunteers. And it is the heartwarming story of the relationship that grew up between Laura Coleman and a puma, a relationship that only deepened over the years.
“THE PUMA YEARS is a fascinating glimpse into the lives of the animals rescued by a sanctuary, Comunidad Inti Wara Yassi, in Bolivia.
