Penned by Chilean anarchist Jesus Sepulveda, The Garden of Peculiarities is a substantial 21st-century anarchist essay. Previously published in Spanish and Portuguese, it makes the case for neo-primitivism, or green anarchy, as the best tool for activists battling mega-corporate globalization. Written in terse, pointed prose, the book thoughtfully analyzes the deficiencies of postindustrial culture and explores the best human and plant-centered alternatives for dealing with them.

"If we are to survive, we must remember the wisdom in this powerful and poetic book. The Garden of Particularities will in time, I believe, become a classic. Jesús Sepúlveda showsus how to remember what we already know in our bodies." - Derrick Jensen

"Profundity is sometimes delivered in small packages. This is one of those times." - Ward Churchill

"In The Garden of Particularities, Jesús Sepúlveda intertwines the learned language of an academician with the common sense of a campesino, and the resulting philosophy is post-everything in its insistance on human experience and expectation as they evolved to be." - Chellis Glendinning

"We have needed The Garden of Particularities. Far from the constricted academic style, the counter-politics of Sepúlveda represents, as few texts do, the new emerging thought of Latin America, and it proves it is possible to build an anti-neoliberal and anti-globalization bridge between the First World and Southern Hemisphere societies." - Lagos Nilsson
