Description
Dark Skies: A Journey Into the Wild Night by Tiffany Francis-Baker explores our relationship with darkness and the night sky. Over the course of a year, Francis-Baker travels to different landscapes across Britain and Europe, experiencing unique nocturnal environments and speaking to people who live in darkness for extended periods. Her journey takes her through 24-hour daylight, haunted forests, and beneath the Northern Lights. Along the way, she investigates how our experiences of the night-time world have shaped history, folklore, science, geography, art, and literature. This personal and beautifully written nature memoir offers a fresh perspective on humanity's connection to the darkness. Through her travels, Francis-Baker reveals how our perceptions of the night sky have evolved over time, influencing our culture and way of life. Dark Skies is a thought-provoking exploration of the human experience, one that will appeal to readers interested in nature, history, and the intersection of science and society.
