H is for Hawk by Helen Macdonald

5.0

---

An amazing entry into another world, the world of British falconry, and the incredible discipline and commitment necessary for a bit of success with a hawk. The love of this practice suffuses this powerful memoir of loss, grief, despair, and feared madness. The story, beautifully told, will engage not only all of your senses, but also your heart, as you come to care deeply for both hawk and human.
