Von der hinteren Coverseite
'A hymn to country solitude, lyrical, unpretentious and deeply felt' Colin Thubron
'Strange and lovely' Jenny Diski
As a child in wartime England, Janet White decided that she wanted to live somewhere wild and supremely beautiful. She imagined searching the world for a place high and remote as a sheep stell, challenging and untouched.
Turning her back on convention, Janet's desire to carve out her own pastoral Eden has taken her from the Cheviot Hills to Sussex and Somerset, via the savage beauty of rural New Zealand.
The Sheep Stell tells the tale of a woman before her time: a woman with incredible courage and determination, truly devoted to the land and its creatures. Deeply evocative and profound, it is a lost classic.
'Should be compulsory reading' John Barrington
'Pure joy' Philip Marsden
