Gone to Earth

In the lush Shropshire countryside, free-spirited Hazel Woodus is torn between two men: the gentle parson Edward Marston and the passionate, fox-hunting squire Jack Reddin. Her wild side, deep connection to nature, and love of animals – especially Foxy, her pet fox – make for clear internal conflict: she wants to find contentment in her chaste marriage to Edward, but the allure of Reddin is inescapable… Mary Webb’s intimate knowledge of the landscape transports us to the heart of her melodrama, set over a century ago. In addition to the depth and realism of its characters, Gone to Earth is a feast for the senses, painting vivid landscapes and evoking the raw power of the natural world.
