The Gathering Tide by Karen Lloyd
Karen Lloyd takes us on a deeply personal journey around the 60 miles of coastline that make up natures amphitheatre.
Slides effortlessly from the environment to history, to stories of others, to personal anecdote, 'sewn together into a continuous experience'It succeeds magnificently. The account of crossing the bay with Cedric is as evocative as Macfarlane's description of crossing the Maplin sands. * Robin Lloyd-Jones *
