Melissa Harrison is a writer and nature lover whose first novel Clay (2013) won the Portsmouth First Fiction prize, was selected for Amazon’s ‘Rising Stars’ programme and named by Ali Smith as a book of the year. Her second, At Hawthorn Time (2015), was shortlisted for the Costa Best Novel Award and chosen by the Telegraph as one of their Books of the Year; both books are as much about the natural world as they are about people. She writes the Nature Notebook in The Times and regularly speaks about conservation, literature, and the very fertile ground between the two.
"Four volumes of seasonal writing about nature - get them all" - Mark Avery, best books of 2016; "This quartet, which has appeared over the past year, is published in support of The Wildlife Trusts, which look after some 2,300 special places in the United Kingdom. Combining work from established and up-and-coming writers with the observations of supporters of the trusts, it is both a celebration of the natural world and an encouragement to get out and enjoy it - whatever the weather"-- Michael Kerr, The Telegraph Books of the Year 2016; "Classic nature writers and also some exciting new voices" - Stephen Moss, Guardian Books of the Year 2016; "A fantastic series designed to celebrate the seasons" - LandLove magazine
