A love letter to life on the remote British islands of Shetland and to a wilder way of living, from one of our most celebrated poets.
A stunning love letter of life in Shetland by Jen Hadfield, winner of the T.S. Eliot Prize.
'This book has been my friend' - Amy Liptrot, bestselling author of The Outrun
'I was transported' - KATHERINE MAY, BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF WINTERING
'Deeply thoughtful and beautifully written' - SARAH MOSS, BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF SUMMERWATER
'A book as exhilarating as a dip in wild winter waters' - THE GUARDIAN
In her late twenties, poet Jen Hadfield moved to Shetland to make a new life. Here, in a rugged constellation of islands known for their isolation and drama, she found a place teeming with life, where rare seabirds blow in on Atlantic gales, an ancient language thrives, and a close-knit community is the beating heart of an entire world.
In Storm Pegs, Hadfield transports us to the islands as a local, introducing us to the remote and beautiful archipelago where she has made her home, and shows us new ways of living at the edge.
Storm Pegs perfectly captures the knotting of language and landscape. I was transported.
