Non-Fiction Book Club – Braiding Sweetgrass

Spend an evening exploring the relationship between people, plants and the natural world at Lakmahal Community Library’s Non-Fiction Book Club in Colombo.

This month’s discussion focuses on Braiding Sweetgrass by botanist and author Robin Wall Kimmerer, a celebrated work that brings together Indigenous knowledge, scientific understanding and reflections on humanity’s relationship with the living world.

The session offers readers an opportunity to exchange ideas around ecology, nature, reciprocity and environmental responsibility in the relaxed setting of one of Colombo’s independent community libraries.

For international travellers who enjoy books, nature and thoughtful conversation, the evening offers something different from a typical tourist attraction. It is an opportunity to meet local readers, exchange perspectives and experience Colombo’s contemporary literary community from the inside.
