Books

Over the past decade, Paul’s books have been published worldwide and translated into six languages. His work explores the connections between humans and the rest of nature, the costs that come from losing those connections, and the ways we can create those connections again.

THE END OF NIGHT

"A lyrical, far-reaching book. Part elegy, part call-to-arms, The End of Night feels like an essential addition to the literature of nature."  —The Boston Globe

Let There Be Night

Let There Be Night celebrates the gifts of darkness and mourns the loss of dark skies to light pollution.”
—Stephen Trimble

Solastalgia

"It’s brave to write into the vastness of our climate crisis and still understand the role of celebration. These authors offer the full complexity of what it means to love a place while it’s being forever shifted." —Toni Jensen

The Ground Beneath Us

“A beautiful call for deeper physical, intellectual, and emotional connections between people and Earth." 
—David George Haskell

To Know a Starry Night

“Paul Bogard is the unofficial poet laureate of dark skies. This is a terrific work.” —Christopher Cokinos

“A beautiful testament to how much of ourselves we lose as our city lights obscure the stars."
—Dr. Tyler Nordgren, astronomer and artist

What if Night?

“A little girl and her dog contemplate the joys of darkness from looking at the moon, stars, and fireflies to nocturnal animals and insects. This versatile title could easily be used as a catalyst for discussion, or as a read-aloud at bedtime or story time.”
