LONGLISTED FOR THE 2021 WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR NATURE WRITING 'Funny,
accessible and full of wonders' Melissa Harrison, author of The
Stubborn Light of Things Lev Parikian is on a joyful journey to
discover the quirks, habits and wonders of how we experience
nature. ___ It's often said that we're a nation of nature lovers,
but what does that really mean? Lev Parikian sets out to explore
the many ways that he, and we, experience the natural world - from
pavement to garden and from wildlife reserve to far-flung island.
He visits the haunts of famous nature lovers to examine their
insatiable curiosity; meets ramblers, birders and den-builders; and
gets up close and personal with the nature he finds everywhere -
including the kitchen sink. Open a window, hear the birds calling
and join this warm and generous journey into the tangled bank. ___
'If, like me, you've got more *into nature* in the last few months,
but sometimes feel a bit excluded by nature writing, then this book
will make you feel included and welcomed.' Tracey Thorn 'A witty,
touching and profound book about one man's burgeoning relationship
with the natural world - and it's also a joy to read.' Stephen Moss
'Lev's endearing child-like joy at even the smallest of encounters
is infectious.' BBC Wildlife Magazine
