The Secret Life of Fungi by Aliyah Whiteley

The Secret Life of Fungi by Aliyah Whiteley

This autumn, take a journey into the surreal and hidden world of one of our planet's most extraordinary, and little understood, lifeforms: fungi. Beautifully illustrated gift for any nature lover.

'The Secret Life of Fungi is a brave foray into the Third Kingdom - exploring the otherness of these life forms, and examining those points at which they impinge on the lifecycle of humankind' - Linden Hawthorne, author and horticulturist

Aliya Whiteley grew up in North Devon and developed an early passion for walking and observing nature. She has written about the natural world for Mental Floss and in her fiction, which has been shortlisted for the Arthur C. Clarke Award among others. Whiteley’s novella The Beauty depicted a future world in which a fungus interacts with humanity and creates a new form of life, leading readers all over the world to send her photographs and articles relating to mushrooms. Her new novel, Greensmith (2020), deals with seed banks and viruses and the current global threat to diversity. She walks through the woods and fields around her home in West Sussex every day, taking inspiration from the hidden worlds around her.
