Another beautiful, revelatory country diary from one of the best nature writers in Britain.

'If youve never read Mark Cocker, then you must. His style is sharp, selfless, and wonderfully evocative, his knowledge deep and wide-ranging but lightly borne, his curiosity joyful and infectious.' Mail On Sunday, Books of the Year

For seventeen years, as part of his daily writerly routine, the author and naturalist Mark Cocker has taken a two-mile walk down to the river from his cottage on the edge of the Norfolk Broads National Park. Over the course of those 10,000 daily paces he has learnt the art of patience to observe a butterfly, a bird, flower, bee, deer, otter or fly and to take pleasure in all the other inhabitants of his parish, no matter how seemingly insignificant.

In turn these encounters have then been converted into literary epiphanies that are now a widely celebrated part of his work. In A Claxton Diary he has gathered some of the finest short essays that he has ever written on wildlife. They range over almost everything he can see, touch or smell, from the minute to the cosmic, from a strange micromoth called yellow-barred longhorn to that fiercest of winter storms the so-called Beast from the East.

From the marvellous to the macabre, Cocker tries to capture nature without flinching and in its entirety. In so doing he provides us with a vision of an English country parish that for intimacy and precise detail is comparable with Gilbert Whites diary on Selbourne. Above all he reminds us that we are all just members of one miraculous family, fashioned from sunlight and the dust from old stars.

Recenzijas

A spellbinding nature diary thats up there with the greatest [ Cocker] regularly follows up a beady description with a wild, glorious overview, followed by an astonishing fact or two Hurrah for Mark Cocker! ***** * Mail on Sunday * Being a naturalist, Cockers great strength is in the breadth of his senses: his essays seem to cover almost everything he has seen, heard or smelled in the land around his home. He writes clearly, and with a style that has a ring of poetry about it without being pretentious or precious Spending time with his acutely observant essays will convince many readers that the Great Barrier Reef and vast jungles of Africa can be understood best only by first understanding the startling drama, diversity and complicated natural dynamics of a humble corner of Britain. * Spectator * If youve never read Mark Cocker, then you must. His style is sharp, selfless, and wonderfully evocative, his knowledge deep and wide-ranging but lightly borne, his curiosity joyful and infectious. -- Craig Brown * Mail on Sunday, *Books of the Year* * If you cant get out to enjoy the spring weather, immerse yourself in the natural world with Mark Cocker his writing transports you there. * Mail on Sunday * If you already know Mark Cockers work, youll need no persuading to buy this if you dont, treat yourself to a very fine collection of nature essays. * Bird Watching, *Book of the Month* * A Claxton Diary is a collection of his finest essays written on wildlife and encounters with nature. * UK Press Syndication * [ Cocker] has a dream-like poetic edge, a touch of surreality that tips over into gentle humour Cockers gift is that he can make you look as he does at blackbirds in a new way, or, shifting to the micro-scale, at ants bustling about in the cracks between paving slabs. -- Brian Morton * Times Literary Supplement * A master of short-form writing Cocker combines forensic observation of minutiae with grander universal truths Exquisite essential reading. -- Ben Hoare * BBC Wildlife * Wonderful. * The Simple Things * Mark Cocker is one of the many modern nature writers who I admire... and his latest book, A Claxton Diary, is as well written as all his others. -- Paul Cheney * Paul Cheney's Books of the Year *
