Paperback. Condition: New. Eerie, unsettling and hauntingly beautiful - a new collaboration from the bestselling creators of Holloway, Robert Macfarlane and Stanley Donwood 'Ness goes beyond what we expect books to do. Beyond poetry, beyond the word, beyond the bomb -- it is an aftertime song' Max Porter, Booker-longlisted author of Grief is the Thing with Feathers Somewhere on a salt-and-shingle island, inside a ruined concrete structure known as The Green Chapel, a figure called The Armourer is leading a ritual with terrible intent. But something is coming to stop him. Five more-than-human forms are traversing land, sea and time towards The Green Chapel, moving to the point where they will converge and become Ness. Ness has lichen skin and willow-bones. Ness is made of tidal drift, green moss and deep time. Ness has hagstones for eyes and speaks only in birds. And Ness has come to take this island back. What happens when land comes to life? What would it take for land to need to come to life?Using word and image, the pair have together made a minor modern myth. Part-novella, part-prose-poem, part-mystery play, in Ness their skills combine to dazzling, troubling effect. Robert Macfarlane is the author of The Lost Words with Jackie Morris, The Old Ways and Underland. Stanley Donwood is an artist and the author of Slowly Downward, Household Worms and Bad Island.

Condition: Good. First Edition. Orford Ness, een landtong voor de oostkust van Engeland die het Britse leger ooit gebruikte als kernwapentestcentrum, is prijsgegeven aan de natuur. In een vervallen bunker, de Groene Kapel, leidt De Wapenmeester een rituele ceremonie met een verschrikkelijk doel. Vijf natuurkrachten, het, hij, ze, zij en als, naderen over land, zee en door de lucht de Groene Kapel om het plan van De Wapenmeester te verijdelen. In de gedaante van natuurelementen (zwammen, korstmossen, stenen, vogels) nemen ze Ness en De Wapenmeester en zijn volgelingen langzaam in bezit. De natuur, Ness zelf, heeft het laatste woord, ook als de mensheid allang is verdwenen, ook in de diepe tijd. Robert Macfarlane en Stanley Donwood schiepen in woord en beeld een moderne mythe (deels novelle, deels prozagedicht, deels mysterieus toneelstuk) in een unieke taal met een duizelingwekkend effect.; Scheurtje geplakt hoek voorkant stofomslag; snee in rug stofomslag geplakt.
