'A profoundly satisfying read' Financial Times
In Field Notes from the Edge, the acclaimed writer of the Guardian's
'Country Diary', Paul Evans, takes us on a journey through the
in-between spaces of Nature - such as strandlines, mudflats, cliff tops
and caves - where one wilderness is on the verge of becoming another and
all things are possible.
Here, Evans searches out wildlife and plants to reveal a Nature that is
inspiring yet intimidating; miraculous yet mundane; part sacred space,
part wasteland. It is here that we tread the edge between a fear of
Nature's dangers and a love of Nature's beauty.
Combining a naturalist's eye for observation with a poet's ear for the
lyrical*, Field Notes from the Edge* confirms Paul Evans's place among
our leading nature writers today.
