The Quiet Fields: Fennel's Journal No. 7

Fennel’s Journal is the heartfelt and entertaining account of one man’s search for an old-fashioned and peaceful rural life. Written by eccentric English countryman Fennel Hudson, the Journal traces his attempts to balance the pressures of modern living by following the mantra of ‘Stop – Unplug – Escape – Enjoy’.

Brought to life by a mixture of thought-provoking and humorous incidents, Fennel’s writing is deeply personal, self-effacing, and honest. As one reader commented, “Fennel is the only author who can make me laugh out loud and cry in the same sentence. His Journal had me constantly in tears, for all the right reasons”.

'The Quiet Fields' is about those remote, rural, places where Nature exists undisturbed and where we may where we may sit and ponder ‘The Wonder of the World’. The book tips its hat to the nature writing of BB, revealing the ‘Lost England’ that still exists if you know where and how to look. It is the most sentimental and astutely observed Journal to date, discussing the ‘true beauty’ of Nature. If you’ve ever yearned to hear birdsong during a busy day, then this is the book for you.
