Description

The Catch: Fishing for Ted Hughes

A meditation on poetry and nature, this book is a stunning reflection on what it means to be a father and a son. Mark Wormald's journey takes him back to the rivers and lakes of Britain and Ireland, where he meets Ted Hughes in the midst of a swirling river.

Using Hughes's poetry collection River and his fishing diaries as a guide, Mark returns again and again to the water, drawn by an obsession with nature and a fundamental connection to the wild. A poignant exploration of loss and healing, The Catch is a powerful tribute to the poet who inspired it.
