Rural Hours - Harriet Baker - Signed Copy
This book tells the story of three very different women - Virginia Woolf, Sylvia Townsend Warner and Rosamund Lehmann - each of whom moved to the countryside and was forever changed by it.
For all three, rural life began with personal disruption: ill health, a lover, a divorce. Each was stricken with anxiety about their work, but through the new environs that they found themselves in they embraced freedom.
Harriet Baker posits the idea through this book that the 'rural hours' of her subjects lives defined their lives in some way and that their example is an invitation to the reader to recognize the radical and creative potential of the countryside.
