________________________ 'A beautiful and luminous love letter to
the night sky.' - Julian Hoffman, author of Irreplaceable
Moonlight, starlight, the ethereal glow of snow in winter ... When
you flick off a switch, other forms of light begin to reveal
themselves. In this beautifully written exploration of the power of
the lights of night, Matt Gaw ventures forth into darkness to find
out exactly what we're missing when we fill our world with
artificial glow, obliterating the subtler natural lights that have
guided us and wildlife for millennia. Walking by the light of the
moon in Suffolk and under the scattered buckshot of starlight in
Scotland; braving the darkest depths of Dartmoor and the glare of
24/7 London, Under the Stars is an inspirational and immersive call
to reconnect with the natural world - and to switch off. We only
need to step outside to find that, in darkness, the world lights
up. Let's look up together. ________________________ 'Enchanting,
fascinating and written with real soul and sensitivity.' - Rob
Cowen, author of Common Ground 'Lyrical, warm, and suffused with
the magic of the night' - Patrick Barkham, author of The Butterfly
Isles 'One of the most inspiring of our young nature writers, with
a highly original journey into darkness and night' - Stephen Moss,
naturalist and author of The Robin: A Biography
