“Byzantine Tree Life comprises three essays framed by a substantive introduction and conclusion. … the book itself is a conversation between three colleagues, and we the readers are invited to join. We can join first, surely, by looking again and a new at the trees that accompany our days, frame our lives, and appear copiously, indeed instructively, in the cultural remains of our Byzantine friends.” (Susan Ashbrook Harvey, Journal of Orthodox Christian Studies, Vol. 6 (1), 2023)
