A charming collection of stories and fables inspired by Britain's nineteen species of native trees, written by nineteen of Britain's leading authors. Why Willows Weep is edited by Tracy Chevalier, bestselling author of Girl with a Pearl Earring, and contains beautiful colour illustrations by Canadian artist Leanne Shapton. With sales in hardback of 10,000 this collection has already helped the Woodland Trust plant nearly 50,000 trees across the United Kingdom, and it is now available in paperback for the first time.… (altro)
This is a set of 19 short stories, by different authors, each taking a native tree and writing a short story or fable about it. There is a mixture in here of creation myths, of love and of old histories. Some of them are told with a modern perspective, others are more tradiitonal. A number relate to how the tree acquired its distinctive flower or fruiting features. It makes for a fascinating set. And a perfect relaxing read in the bath after a day in the garden. I bought this having read the last of the stories. And I think that one is probably the best of a very good bunch. ( )
