Brought to you by Penguin.
At night, the normal rules of Nature do not apply. In the night-wood I have met a badger coming the other way, tipped my cap, said hello. The animals do not expect us humans to be abroad in the dark, which is their time, when the world still belongs to them.
That was in winter. The screaming of a tawny owl echoed off the bare trees. For all of our street-lamp civilization, you can still hear the call of the wild. If, if, you go out after the decline of the day...
As the human world settles down each evening, nocturnal animals prepare to take back the countryside. Taking readers on four walks through the four seasons, acclaimed nature writer and farmer John Lewis-Stempel reveals a world bursting with life and normally hidden from view. Out beyond the cities, it is still possible to see the night sky full of stars, or witness a moonbow, an arch of white light in the heavens.
It is time for us to leave our lairs and go tramping. To join our fellow creatures of the night.

Four Nocturnes

His intelligent exploration of his topic, apparently boundless knowledge of the countryside, and ability to weave the referenced work of others into his work is now like a warm duvet of comfort.
I always finish his work, having learned more and wanting yet more.
This audio version is expertly performed, providing the listener with a real connection to the work and the ability to escape into the countryside and on this occasion the countryside at night.
A brief superlative work, read with skill
