Storm Pegs: A Life Made in Shetland -- Jen Hadfield, Paperback
A stunning love letter to life in Shetland and a wilder way of living by celebrated poet Jen Hadfield.
'This book has been my friend' - Amy Liptrot, bestselling author of The Outrun 'I was transported' - Katherine May 'A book as exhilarating as a dip in wild winter waters' - The Guardian 'Deeply thoughtful and beautifully written' - Sarah Moss 'A bewitching book' - The Telegraph In her late twenties, poet Jen Hadfield moved to Shetland to make a new life. Here, in a rugged constellation of islands known for their isolation and drama, she found a place teeming with life, where rare seabirds blow in on Atlantic gales, an ancient language thrives, and a close-knit community is the beating heart of an entire world. In Storm Pegs, Hadfield transports us to the islands as a local, introducing us to the remote and beautiful archipelago where she has made her home, and shows us new ways of living at the edge.Author: Jen Hadfield
