Tree

by Joel Berman

During its 4,000years of existence, a Bristlecone Pine Tree (in actuality the oldest living species on earth) develops the ability to think and transfer its thoughts to other objects, eventually finding a human boy as its host. With its long life and strange connection with Universal energy, the tree imbues the boy with extraordinary knowledge and abilities. We learn about the development of the tree through its own autobiography and the complexities it faces, becoming intimately attached to the body and actions of the human, endowing the boy with the mind of a genius. The boy and tree grow, and eventually face issues in coexisting together. The tree, however, cannot conceive of turning to its physical being only as a pine tree fixed to a solitary plot of ground high in the California Mountains, and refuses to leave the boy’s body. Eventually, the boy and his lover must decide how to live with the tree or to take some other option. There is no other book like this, essentially written by a tree (as explained in the text) and focuses on what a human could accomplish if he were able to use not 10—15% of his brain power, but upward of 50% or more, guided by a living thing which has existed for over 4,000 years.
