Windswept Signed Bookplate Edition

Praise for Windswept

‘Windswept isn’t only enjoyable and enriching, it contains some of the most striking descriptions of nature I’ve ever read . . . An instant classic of British nature-writing’ HORATIO CLARE, SUNDAY TELEGRAPH *****

‘Let’s face it, few of us are likely to experience life as Worsley does: remote, wild, elemental, between mountains and
sky. But we get a tantalising glimpse of this other world through these pages. It’s like breathing in pure, invigorating Scottish Highlands air and it is a very welcome interlude… Worsley is the Real Deal’
DAILY MAIL

‘Windswept is a wonderful work, prose-painted in bold, bright strokes like a Scottish Colourist's canvas. It is a story of learning to keep time differently, in one of the most spectacular landscapes in Britain. Annie Worsley has written a gorgeous almanac or year-book in which the minutes, hours and months are marked not by the tick of clock-hands but weather-fronts, bird migrations and plant-patterns of growth and decay’ Robert Macfarlane

‘Woven with the wisdom of both scientist and poet, Windswept is a beautiful account of life and landscape in one of the UK's most remote and dramatic enclaves. I was transported with every reading, left with gale-ruffled hair and a salty tang on my tongue’ Lee Schofield author of Wild Fell

‘A shaft of golden stormlight, a blast of pure Highland air, Windswept is an exhilarating account of life lived closer to the elements than most of us will ever have the chance to experience’ Melissa Harrison, author of All Among the Barley

‘A compelling, abundantly descriptive portrait of a captivating place’ The Herald

‘Her nature writing is so fluent and captivating that you can lose yourself in it, find yourself feeling the breeze and smelling the warm vegetation of a Wester Ross summer’ West Highland Free Press
