| book description |
An urgent, beautifully observed portrait of rural Britain and the politics that shape it, from the no. 1 bestselling author of Politics on the Edge ‘Rare and life-affirming’ MICHAEL MORPURGO ‘Personal, wise and often funny’ CAROLINE LUCAS Rory Stewart spent nearly a decade as MP for Britain’s most rural constituency, Penrith and the Border, living among Cumbria’s fells, farms and ancient frontiers. Drawing on pieces originally written for a local newspaper, Middleland is both a love letter to rural Britain – a place caught in tensions between farming and the natural world, between the need to preserve and to grow, between local needs and national demands – and a quietly radical exploration of how politics might better serve the people it represents. ‘A triumph’ Literary Review ‘A moving, grounded look at rural Britain’ i Paper ‘Intriguing…enjoyable’ Daily Telegraph ‘Full of intelligence and panache’ Scotsman ‘Refreshingly honest’ Country Life ‘Stewart sees Cumbria’s glory’ New Statesman
