Beschreibung
Cocker's brilliant description of his journeys in search of crows and ravens, birds that obsessed him and changed his life forever. A prose poem in a long tradition of English pastoral writing, it's also a reminder that 'Crow Country' is not ours, it is a landscape which we cohabit with thousands of other species. He uncovers the complexities of the birds' inner lives and the richness hidden in the raucous crow song. '"Crow Country" is a significant, beautiful work' "New Statesman"
