Vesper Flights | HELEN. MACDONALD
post image
Pickpick

Short essays looking at the natural world, and, above all, our relationship with it. From field guides to swifts, from berries to watching naturalists themselves, I felt that Helen Macdonald had something new and interesting to say, that I wanted to hear.

I wasn‘t always enamoured with her writing style, but as I settled into it I began to appreciate the slowing down I needed to re-read sentences, and the stretching of my vocabulary.👇🏻

rockpools Regardless, I thought this was just wonderful and I‘ll be buying a print copy to reread when it‘‘s available.

Thank you #NetGalley and #JonathanCape for the chance to read and review this in advance.

Book no.2 for #NetGalleyReviewathon and a real actual named square for #bookspinbingo. @TheAromaofBooks @sprainedbrain
