The Easternmost Sky by Juliet Blaxland

The Easternmost Sky by Juliet Blaxland is part memoir, part elegy and part warning. It was written on the Suffolk coast, in a place known for its farmland, nature reserves and the fastest coastal erosion in Europe. By exploring how climate change and social change are already affecting this agriculturally important part of the world, it is possible to imagine a very different landscape, to glimpse the future and to understand how these changes will affect us all.

Engaging.. Blaxland is an acute observer, steeped in the ways of the countryside, its communities, and its traditions.
