Rebanks also has a new one out last year, but I haven't read it yet: English Pastoral (https://www.amazon.com/English-Pastoral/dp/0241245729 https://www.amazon.com/English-Pastoral/dp/0241245729). Anyone have opinions?
- railton 5y agoI've read both and think English Pastoral is marginally better. Less sheep, more general farming stuff and stronger narrative of old-school farming with his grandfather to modern industrialised then to present where he's doing more regenerative agriculture. You can get a signed copy from his local Lake District bookshop btw: https://www.samreadbooks.co.uk/product/EnglishPastoral/2244 https://www.samreadbooks.co.uk/product/EnglishPastoral/2244
