Why are we drawn to birds, to landscape, to nature? It is for the sense of wonder - and in capturing that sense of wonder, Fiennes reminds us how desperately we all need it * Sunday Telegraph *
The Snow Geese moved me as have few other recent booksNo one who reads it is likely to continue to look at the world in the same way * Times Literary Supplement *
A beautifully solitary and beautifully reflective book * Evening Standard *
The descriptions of the geese and their environment are jaw-droppingly beautiful. But Fiennes' most remarkable talent is for describing the quotidian with such freshness that it is like seeing the world for the first time * Mail on Sunday *
An inspired work of natural history and travel. A classic * Irish Independent *
His sharp eye and his inventive similes take us everywhere with him . . . an unmistakably gifted writer * The Times *
