John Boorman's Nature Diary by John Boorman

John Boorman's Nature Diary by John Boorman

In his eighty-eighth year, John Boorman uses his time in lockdown to create a nature diary of the surrounding nature of County Wicklow.

Reading each entry, a meditative calm descends, and I can almost feel the bark of the twin oak he so lovingly strokes when he visits it, as if greeting an old friend, before sitting on the bench beneath to drift in and out of ruminations and dreaming

Delicate, insightful, rich and meditative.
