Why subscribe?

I’m Hannah James, journalist, reader and nature-lover, and I always intend to send out this newsletter once a month on Friday afternoons, but really, it’s when the spirit moves. If you subscribe, you get full access to the newsletter and website.

I talk about all kinds of books and bookish things here, plus other cultural topics of interest. But I have an abiding interest in nature writing. City living is rich and fulfilling, but I’m always on a quest to connect with nature. Other than getting out into whatever pockets of wilderness I can find, I mostly do this through books. Here’s where I read and review nature writing, building my own wild library - and hopefully yours, too.

Welcome! Let’s get a breath of fresh air.
