A powerful work of memoir and storytelling that will change the way
we think about the natural world. Like many diasporic people of
colour, Claire Ratinon grew up feeling cut off from the natural
world. She lived in cities, reluctant to be outdoors and stuck with
the belief that success and status could fill the space where
belonging was absent. But a chance encounter with a rooftop farm
was the start of a journey that caused her to rethink the life
she'd been creating and her beliefs about who she ought to be.
Enlivened, she turned her hand to growing food in London before
finding herself yearning for a small parcel of land to call her
own. Unearthed tells the story of her leaving the city for the
English countryside - and her first garden - in the hope of forging
a pathway towards the embrace of the natural world and a sense of
belonging cultivated on her own terms. 'Ratinon's story will change
hearts and minds' Alice Vincent 'A beautiful book about nature...I
recommend it' Afua Hirsch, author of Brit(ish)
