About This Novel
"Silent Spring" is a book that inspired the cause of environmental protection around the world. The author is American marine biologist Rachel Carson. This book describes "invisible" pollution and visible problems. The book begins with a fable, describing a small town with pleasant scenery all year round that is suddenly shrouded in strange silence, which leads to the serious harm of chemical pesticides represented by DDT to water sources, soil, animals and plants, and even humans themselves. The book takes specific events that happened in the United States as examples, from land to sea, and from sea to sky, to reveal the harm of chemical pesticides in an all-round way. It uses a literary and artistic form to show the author's heart to care for nature, reflect on human behavior, and pay attention to the sustainable development of the ecosystem.
