Klappentext zu „H is for Hawk “
Now in paperback, this memoir won the Samuel Johnson Prize for Non-Fiction. Macdonald recounts how she dealt with the death of her father by training a goshawk, in a book which combines autobiography, nature writing and the exploration of myths and literature, as she weaves the story of novelist T.H. White into her narrative. 'A deeply human work shot through... with intelligence and compassion...' Melissa Harrison, "Financial Times"

Pressezitat
This beautiful book is at once heartfelt and clever in the way it mixes elegy with celebration: elegy for a father lost, celebration of a hawk found - and in the finding also a celebration of countryside, forbears of one kind and another, life-in-death. At a time of very distinguished writing about the relationship between human kind and the environment, it is immediately pre-eminent. Andrew Motion
