A wonderful meditation on the English landscape in wet weather by the acclaimed novelist and nature writer, Melissa Harrison.
Whenever
rain falls, our countryside changes. Fields, farms, hills and hedgerows
appear altered, the wildlife behaves differently, and over time the
terrain itself is transformed.
In Rain, Melissa Harrison
explores our relationship with the weather as she follows the course of
four rain showers, in four seasons, across Wicken Fen, Shropshire, the
Darent Valley and Dartmoor.
Blending these expeditions with
reading, research, memory and imagination, she reveals how rain is not
just an essential element of the world around us, but a key part of our
own identity too.
