Ponies At The Edge Of The World

Reviews

'Uplifting and moving' 'Striking' 'A meditation on connection between humans and animals, and the homes we make in wild places. I was completely immersed in this remote landscape' 'The Shetland isles and Shetland ponies, the double-down dream, woven with admiration, the narrator's craft, and some healthy, clear-eyed insight. I damn loved it' 'Poetic and generous' 'A thoughtful appeal for us to re-examine our ideas of community and our relationship with the wild' 'An unforgettable portrait of a sense of place' 'Intelligent in observation and precise and elegant in her writing, Catherine Munro shows how people and animals live and respond to each other, particularly in island communities like Shetland. She shows great insight into the way both the seasons and the sea's strong winds affect people in places like these' 'A meditative, exultant sojourn that illuminates the importance of working with nature, and of its importance in all we do and experience, and of living in the moment.'
