MYCO

They are ingenious, intelligent, communicate and connect with each other over vast distances, decay and build, disappear and reappear, adapt and transform, survive without anything, defend the enemy in peaceful ways, heal themselves and others, are beautiful, diverse and mysterious (how little we know about them!). Mushrooms! A magazine compiled by mushrooms themselves to report on their world – this is how Jiří Dvořák conceived his story about the mysterious realm of mushrooms, amusingly but absolutely true. His excursions into the underground, the prehistoric mushroom world and the hot present are complemented by Daniela Olejníková’s witty and apt illustrations. The book received the Best Book of the World BolognaRagazzi Award 2024 in the Non Fiction category.
