Recenzii
Forecast is the most urgently needed, most important book I have read in a very long time.
This urgent, elegiac book's call to mend our broken relationship with the land feels more vital by the day.
With a journalist's eye for detail, he backs up his captivating anecdotal evidence regarding the seasons with the results of solid scientific research to finger the culprit: global warming.
At its core, this book is a love letter to the biosphere and to our bond with it. Joe Shute has a journalist's ear and a lover's eye; he demonstrates what one sees while moving across the land, tracking change when all else seemed still. This is no ordinary nature diary - it enlarges our perspective of what has altered, and what is being lost . this is one of the most poignant and affecting nature books I have read this year.
An absolutely beautiful account of life going on while the world stopped. I loved it.
Joe Shute does not rant but, with passion and expertise, illuminates in beautifully clear prose, laced with well-judged literary and historical references, the scale of the threat posed to our natural world by Climate Change. A 'must read' for anyone who is curious and who cares.
Joe Shute is one of Britain's finest writers on nature. Or indeed, any other subject.
What a wonderful read. Joe has interwoven our national pastime, our obsession about the weather, into a fascinating history of our changing climate through the centuries and its defining influence on our consciousness. Told through the eyes of farmers, poets and philosophers as well as the author's own personal explorations across the country, Forecast is a beautifully written elegy to our natural world and a warning of how quickly it is changing.
