40 pages, with full colour illustrations by Dru Marland and poems by Colin Brown, Liz Brownlee, Stewart Carswell, Alana Farrell, Deborah Harvey, Alan Summers, John Terry and Cathy Wilson. Wildness – that part of nature humans do not control – can be elusive. You can go out looking for it, but more often than not, it will come unbidden, a sudden gift when you least expect it. So whilst the poems in this collection celebrate Dartmoor, the Somerset Levels and the Black Mountains, they are also bound up with the wildness of small places: things glimpsed through windows, in a suburban street, from the corner of the mind’s eye. 'From a trinity of galloping hares to wolves at the door, from starlings to a well-camouflaged bittern, from collies to egrets, and to badgers as ‘moon-snared Muses’, this is a gorgeous little book throughout, with vivid snappy and tender poems, full of close observations and insights. It is also joyfully illustrated throughout. A must-have!' Penelope Shuttle 'A wonderful collection of poems for all moods - and Dru Marland's illustrations are breathtaking. This is a joy for the bedside, for those special moments stolen to read and look, to remember the fun and strangeness of the natural world. Highly recommended.' Richard Beard
