Weeds and Wild Flowers
Alice Oswald, illustrated by Jessica Greenman
Weeds and Wild Flowers is a magical meeting of the poems of Alice Oswald and the etchings of Jessica Greenman. Within its pages, everyday flora take on an extraordinary life, jostling - comically at times, at times tragically - for a foothold in a busying world.
Stunningly visualised and skilfully animated, this imaginative collaboration beckons us toward a landscape of botanical characters, and invites us to see ourselves among them.
