The Heart of the Valley

Description

Set in the English landscape of the Kent countryside, this beautiful and extraordinary novel follows the life of a hedge sparrow - from winter to summer – as its nest and its young are ravaged by the intrusion of a young cuckoo as well as by the thoughtlessness of humankind. It is a story of catastrophe and survival. From the rapture of mating, the patient nest-building, the laying of tiny sky-blue eggs, the book shows the world through birds’ eyes.
