Rain Av Melissa Harrison

<p>A wonderful meditation on the English landscape in wet weather by the acclaimed novelist and nature writer, Melissa Harrison.<br><br>Whenever rain falls, our countryside changes. Fields, farms, hills and hedgerows appear altered, the wildlife behaves differently, and over time the terrain itself is transformed.<br><br>In <i>Rain</i>, Melissa Harrison explores our relationship with the weather as she follows the course of four rain showers, in four seasons, across Wicken Fen, Shropshire, the Darent Valley and Dartmoor. <br><br>Blending these expeditions with reading, research, memory and imagination, she reveals how rain is not just an essential element of the world around us, but a key part of our own identity too.</p>
