Monday exciting #eveningread
Jade Cuttle’s ‘To Speak the Language of Soil’ is so interesting esp the list of ‘Mossary’
The new book Future Rural, edited by Adrian Cooper @littletollerbooks.bsky.social is great!
Just received Looking For Mr Schwitters from @littletollerbooks.bsky.social. Looks lovely, and at last I can find out about that barn in Chapel Stile.

Fantastic launch for @cprecountryside.bsky.social & @littletollerbooks.bsky.social’s anthology Future Rural @dauntbooks.bsky.social in Marylebone. Many gathered voices from diverse angles, addressing the past, present, & reimagining the future of the countryside for CPREs centenary. Fun was had!
Out this week! #FutureRural is a wide & diverse collection of voices on the rural for @littletollerbooks.bsky.social & the centenary of @cprecountryside.bsky.social. Thrilled to be among those voices.
This looks breathtaking: Osprey by John Lister-Kaye will be published on 27th May by @littletollerbooks.bsky.social.

I look forward to reading this new monograph from the always excellent @littletollerbooks.bsky.social about one of my favorite birds. (I hold out hope that someday my own osprey manuscript might be a book, too.)
