H is for Hawk - Helen Macdonald
Tax included.
Soon to be a Major Motion Picture starring Claire Foy and Brendan Gleeson The hawk was everything I wanted to be: solitary, self-possessed, free from grief, and numb to the hurts of human life.
Fierce and feral, her goshawk Mabel's temperament mirrors Helen's own state of grief after her father's death, and together raptor and human discover the pain and beauty of being alive.
H Is for Hawk is a genre-defying masterpiece on grief, memory, taming and untaming, and how it might be possible to reconcile death with life and love.
