This is an anthology of essays and poetry from more than forty of our best-loved nature writers on bogs, peat and peatlands, stories of nature, science, history and myth.
This is an
anthology built from a shared passion for often overlooked and threatened
landscapes — bogs and other peatlands. And like peat, this book is full of
living things, including stories. Stories of scientific study, archaeological
discovery; personal stories of suffering and growth. Stories in fiction and
fact; in poetry. Stories of damage and threat; of Walshaw Moor; of adventure
and love; the peatlands of Papua New Guinea, the Flow Country, Cors Caron and
much more.
This
anthology from more than forty writers steeped in the landscape of the moors
includes poetry, stories and essays from deep in the peatlands – a collection
that delves deep into bogs, the glow of moss, black water and the sweep of
moorland, the heather burning, the whisky tang of peat. It is a collection of
nature, of history of myth.
This book is a collaboration between The Boggarts, a group of writers working to protect peatlands, and especially Walshaw Moor, Little Toller Books and Bluemoose Books.
The contributors are: Robert Macfarlane, Amy Liptrot, Patti Smith, Horatio Clare, Nicola
Chester, Alys Fowler, Gwynneth Lewis, Guy Shrubsole, Polly Atkin, Louis Bailey,
Naomi Booth, Anne Caldwell, Claire O’Callaghan, Anna Chilvers, Jane Clarke,
Amanda Dalton, Jasmine Donahaye, Ella Duffy, Glyn Edwards, Abbi Flint, Victoria
Gatehouse, Melanie Giles, George Gunn, Sally Huband, Ian Humphreys, Jennifer
Jones, Emma Linford, Carola Luther, Michael Malay, Bunty May, Kim Moore, David
Morley, Donald S Murray, Gregory Norminton, Sonia Overall, George Parr, Pascale
Petit, Anita Roy, Clare Shaw, Harriet Tarlo, Amanda Thomson, Johnny Turner,
Sophie Underwood, Annie Worsley.
