_________________ 'BRITAIN'S FINEST LIVING NATURE WRITER' - THE TIMES WINNER OF THE THWAITES WAINWRIGHT PRIZE 2015 What really goes on in the long grass? Meadowland gives an unique and intimate account of an English meadow’s life from January to December, together with its biography. In exquisite prose, John Lewis-Stempel records the passage of the seasons from cowslips in spring to the hay-cutting of summer and grazing in autumn, and includes the biographies of the animals that inhabit the grass and the soil beneath: the badger clan, the fox family, the rabbit warren,the skylark brood and the curlew pair, among others. Their births, lives, and deaths are stories that thread through the book from first page to last.

Meadowland is a timely novel celebrating the dysfunctional complexity of commonplace lives in a small California town-a tour de force that delves deeply into the hubris of everyday life. Meadowland is populated with peculiar citizens, including the sociopathic, backsliding minister, an adulterous garbage collector who pairs with a wealthy physician's wife, a baseball-obsessed father who forces his love of the game on his young son, and a schizophrenic English teacher fighting desperately against personal demons. You'll meet brave children unearthing answers to life's toughest questions, and discover the driftwood of your childhood along the way. Meadowland is a passionate, humorous, heartbreaking, allegorical rollercoaster ride. Beautifully written, it is burgeoning with cool morning hopes that dehydrate in the blazing sun by midday-an unforgettable, artistic rendering of the everyday (fight or flight) to find meaning in a world that is becoming increasingly irrational.

Winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature In an astonishing book-length sequence, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Louise Gluck interweaves the dissolution of a contemporary marriage with the story of The Odyssey. Here is Penelope stubbornly weaving, elevating the act of waiting into an act of will; here, too, is a worldly Circe, a divided Odysseus, and a shrewd adolescent Telemachus. Through these classical figures, Meadowlands explores such timeless themes as the endless negotiation of family life, the cruelty that intimacy enables, and the frustrating trivia of the everyday. Gluck discovers in contemporary life the same quandary that lies at the heart of The Odyssey: the "unanswerable/affliction of the human heart: how to divide/the world's beauty into acceptable/and unacceptable loves."

Just five miles west of New York City, the Meadowlands is an untamed, vilified, half-developed and smelly tract of swampland. It is home to rare birds and missing bodies, tranquil marshes and a major sports arena, burning garbage dumps and corporate headquarters, the remains of the original Penn Station and possibly those of more than one mafioso. Acclaimed writer Robert Sullivan proves himself to be the perfect explorer, historian and archaeologist for this fragile yet amazingly resilient region. He tramps through the muck on foot and navigates the polluted rivers in a canoe, all the while describing the industrial detritus with as much zeal as he observes the surprisingly rich diversity of wildlife. The Meadowlands is an ode to an overlooked American borderland, a delightfully incongruous battleground marking the ongoing struggle between the forces of progress and nature.

Poetry. Environmental Studies. Pamela Hughes' MEADOWLAND TAKE MY HAND is both an elegy for the continued loss of the land and an exploration of the toxic and playful. Along the track of this eco-adventure, from mountainous landfills and industrial wastelands to the low key beauty of mudflats, the swaying green give of the wetlands along a backdrop of Manhattan's fixed silver horizon, readers will discover the "order of the odor" and "the dank inside of adventure." Narrative and lyric poetry mark the way through the Meadowlands, where loss and hope abide.
