A Sweet, Wild Note

A Sweet, Wild Note PDF Author: Richard Smyth
Publisher: Elliott & Thompson
ISBN: 9781783963775
Category : Birds
Languages : en
Pages : 0

Book Description
In this fascinating account, Richard Smyth asks what it is about birdsong that we so love. Exploring the myriad ways in which it has influenced literature, music, science, and our very ideas of what it means to be human, Smyth's nuanced investigation shows that what we hear says as much about us, our dreams and desires, as it does about the birds and their songs. At a time when our birdsong is growing quieter, with fewer voices, more thinly spread, A Sweet, Wild Note is a celebration of the complex relationships between birds, people, and the land; it is also a passionate call to arms lest our trees and hedgerows fall silent.
