Nature Cure
by Richard Mabey
 
Nature Cure

Nature writer recovers from depression by reconnecting with nature.

Very difficult to describe: this book begins as the famous nature writer Richard Mabey begins to recover from a major bout of depression. He is forced to move house, and gradually rediscovers the joys of Nature.

For some reason, it reminded me of The Rings of Saturn by W.G. Sebald—and not just because it is set in East Anglia.

A good book.
