Description
Rain Four Walks in English Weather by Melissa Harrison The English countryside is forever changed by rain, its landscape altered, its sounds and smells transformed. Rain is not just a nuisance, but a vital part of the land's identity. Yet, on a typical rainy day, we often retreat indoors, missing out on the fascinating world that unfolds outside. In Rain, Melissa Harrison sets out to explore this world, visiting four different parts of the English countryside on rainy days. She blends her observations with research, memory, and imagination to follow the course of four rain-showers as they pass over the land. Through her walks, Harrison reveals the intricate relationships between the natural world and the weather, and how rain shapes our surroundings in profound ways.
