Produktinformationen zu „A Year's Turning (ePub)“
Michael Viney and his wife Ethna lived in the city, had successful jobs in the media and had just turned forty when they made a life-changing decision: to give up everything for a self-reliant existence on a remote cottage farm in County Mayo, on the West Coast of Ireland. This enchanting chronicle of life on the land follows the highs and lows of one year in the Irish countryside.
Since then, for more than forty years, Michael Viney's weekly columns in The Irish Times have established his reputation as a uniquely compassionate and informed commentator on the natural world, and undoubtedly one of Ireland's greatest nature writers.

Autoren-Porträt von Michael Viney
MICHAEL VINEY ( 1933-2023) led a successful career in Irish journalism and television until 1977, when he left behind city life and moved with his wife Ethna and daughter Michele to a one-acre smallholding at Thallabawn, near Louisburgh, on the south-west coast of Mayo. Ventures in 'alternative' living nourished his growing interest in the natural world. He continued writing and went to become of Ireland's foremost nature writers, with a long-running weekly column, Another Life, in The Irish Times, published with his own illustrations. Among his books have been Ireland in the natural history series of the Smithsonian Institution, and Ireland's Ocean written with his wife Ethna.
