Reviews

'A rich, strange, oddly glorious brew' Guardian '[An] entertaining walk through English folklore ... he keeps us with him for the whole journey' Observer 'Like a British David Sedaris dedicated to a rural way of life, Tom Cox crafts funny and poignant stories out of observations and interactions - except his observations are of trees and his interactions are with squirrels' A.V.
