Jane Routh's 'Falling Into Pieces' reflects on life enriched by the land she lives with and looks after. This is a book about a small area of land and its wildlife, work and weathers over four decades. At its heart is a month by month celebration of seasonal shifts - their feel, their smell, their mood. But the writing also has a wider sweep, deftly considering the place of the individual in the evolving story of land use.
