Voted the UKs Favourite Nature BookThe memoir that inspired Chris Packhams BBC documentary, Aspergers and MeEvery minute was magical, every single thing it did was fascinating and everything it didnt do was equally wondrous, and to be sat there, with a Kestrel, a real live Kestrel, my own real live Kestrel on my wrist! I felt like Id climbed through a hole in heavens fence.An introverted, unusual young boy, isolated by his obsessions and a loner at school, Chris Packham only felt at ease in the fields and woods around his suburban home. But when he stole a young Kestrel from its nest, he was about to embark on a friendship that would teach him what it meant to love, and that would change him forever. In his rich, lyrical and emotionally exposing memoir, Chris brings to life his childhood in the 70s, from his bedroom bursting with fox skulls, birds eggs and sweaty jam jars, to his feral adventures. But pervading his story is the search for freedom, meaning and acceptance in a world that didnt understand him.Beautifully wrought, this comingofage memoir will be unlike any youve ever read.
