A finely-wrought meditation on nature, identity, and the tender hold of the past ― Samantha Walton, author of Everybody Needs Beauty and The Living World
Belonging features reflections on family, history, identity, place and nature, from acclaimed writer and artist Amanda Thomson. It is a personal memoir about what it is to have and make a home. It is a love letter to nature, especially the northern landscapes of Scotland and the Scots pinewoods of Abernethy – home to standing dead trees known as snags, which support the overall health of the forest.
Belonging is a book about how we are held in thrall to elements of our past. It speaks to the importance of attention and reflection and will encourage us all to look and observe and ask questions of ourselves.
Beautifully written and featuring Amanda Thomson’s artwork and photography throughout, it explores how place, language and family shape us and make us who we are.
