The Giddings

Meer over het boek

An unnamed traveller's diversion leads him through a richly layered Huntingdonshire landscape, steeped in Civil War history and modernity. As he journeys past ancient woodlands and wind turbines, the trees offer poetic commentary in various styles. His path intersects with the past, culminating in an encounter with Nicholas Ferrar in 17th-century Little Gidding, hinting at a transformative experience. Blending verse and prose, this work explores themes of spiritual quest and nature's resilience in challenging times, echoing the traditions of The Pilgrim's Progress and Ted Hughes.
