Rivers flow, twist, flood, and fadeand in Robert Macfarlanes new book Is a River Alive?, they speak. This Field Notes Quarterly Edition echoes that lyrical inquiry with three memo books inspired by Macfarlanes journeys and Stanley Donwoods extraordinary cover art.

The set features two covers from the U.S. and U.K. hardcover editions, each intricately layered with matte, gloss, and reticulated U.V. varnishes. The third features Donwoods original linocut, Meandera visual echo of the river’s journey from headwaters to delta. Embossed, textured, and tactile, these covers are as collectable as they are useful.

Inside: 48 pages of “Cloud Forest Gray” graph grid on Domtar Lynx paper, saddle-stitched with gloss-white staples. Not just notebooksportable companions for your own epic (or everyday) adventures.
