Once Upon a Raven's Nest by Catrina Davies - Signed Copy

Once Upon a Raven's Nest : A life on Exmoor in an epoch of change. 

Once Upon a Raven's Nest is the story of a working-class man, one Thomas Hedley of Exmoor, and of the planet during his lifetime: the period of its great acceleration towards the current climate emergency. 

Born to a poor family in Somerset, Thomas refused to conform. His fierce independence, recklessness and contrariness led not only to scrapes and self-inflicted dangers, but to a life enriched by passionate friendships. Catrina Davies came to know him in his last years and has given his life and times in his own words. 

In Davies's miraculous retelling of Thomas Hedley's life, it is as if a world has been remembered rather than written. 

 Davie's joined us on stage for our inaugural Heligan Homecoming Festival; a celebration of music, literature, art, culture and food set in the enchanting Lost Gardens of Heligan. This signed copy is exclusively online.
