Reviews

A beautiful, gentle exploration of the dark season of life and the light of spring that eventually follows
*Raynor Winn, bestselling author of The Salt Path*

A book for the soul
*Caitlin Moran*

We all experience periods of 'wintering' in our lives and this book shows us how to embrace the uncertainty that can come with it. A beautiful book that can be enjoyed in both winter and summer
*Lara Maiklem, author of Mudlarking*

An elegant investigation into the consolations of nature and how it can be wonderfully restorative even on the bleakest of days
*Sunday Express*

[A] sympathetic memoir ... May recounts how she attempted to embrace rather than resist the gloom and chill of winter ... she radiates sincerity and quiet self-knowledge
*TLS*
