"Prepare to make tiny gasps of awe as you turn the pages of RAINFOREST and Thomas Marent's photographs
confront you with the jaw-dropping beauty of jungles all over the planet." --O, The Oprah Magazine
Follow the story. Live the experience. One man's photographic journey through the rainforests of the world. Over 16
years in the making–packed with spectacular photographs from Thomas Marent, a self-taught

Over the past 16 years Thomas Marent has traveled all over the world photographing rainforests, from Peru and
