Published as the culmination of a residency held by Sophie Herxheimer with Fermynwoods Contemporary Art in the East Midlands. Sophie as an inner-city Londoner was intrigued to swap her familiar streets for a remote cottage in an ancient woodland. Getting lost in tracts of forest in and around the town of Corby inspired a new sequence of poems as well as many drawings and collages. A selection of these appear alongside the bulk of the book's content: stories collected and drawn live in ink, from members of the public in the area, about the ways we humans relate to nature and the woods.
