Description
This book journeys on foot and through medieval texts, from landscapes of desolation to hope, offering the reader an insight into a world at once distant and profoundly close to home. Seven chapters, titled Earth, Ocean, Forest, Beast, Fen, Catastrophe, and Paradise, open with fiction and close with reflection. They blend reflections of travels through fen, forest and cave, with retelling of medieval texts that offer rich depictions of the natural world. Illustrated with original wood engravings, evoking an atmospheric world of whales, wolves, caves, cuckoos and reeds. From the author of Storyland.
