Publisher:Vintage - Vesper Flights - Helen Macdonald
Description:
From the bestselling author of H is for Hawk comes a transcendent collection of essays about the natural world
'Thrilling dispatches from a vanishing world' Observer
Animals don't exist to teach us things, but that is what they have always done, and most of what they teach us is what we think we know about ourselves.
Helen Macdonaldbrings together a collection of her best-loved writing along with new pieces covering a thrilling range of subjects. There are essays here on headaches, on catching swans, on hunting mushrooms, on twentieth-century spies, on numinous experiences and high-rise buildings; on nests and wild pigs and the tribulations of farming ostriches.
Vesper Flights is a book about observation, fascination, time, memory, love and loss and how we make the world around us. Moving and frank, personal and political, it confirms Helen Macdonald as one of this century's greatest nature writers.
Chosen as a Sunday Times Book to Watch Out for in 2020 and a New Statesman Book to Read in 2020
