Cross-genre writing is one of the most exciting arenas currently being explored by writers such as Kate Bradbury and Alys Fowler. Both have written striking emotionally rich memoirs which explore multiple themes through their brilliant stories.
Kate Bradbury is an award-winning author and journalist specialising in wildlife gardening. THE BUMBLE BEE FLIES AWAY is an affecting ode to growing hope against the odds in a backdoor garden and will inspire anyone who wants to do more to encourage their local wildlife.
Alys Fowler’s HIDDEN NATURE was recently short-listed for the Wainwright Golden Beer prize. It’s an emotional and compelling memoir about transformation when Alys sets out in an inflatable kayak to explore Birmingham’s canal network. The book is about noticing the wild everywhere, including discovering and understanding our human internal wilderness.
