A review by kingjason
The Quarry Wood by Roderick Watson, Nan Shepherd
3.0
Interesting story, at times it is beautifully written when the landscape is being described, but it feels lacking the rest of the time.
A lot of the conversation in this book has been written with a thick Scottish accent and was fascinating to read, at times I had to get my wife to translate some parts but overall I managed to follow it ok.
I only read this book as I wanted to read the living mountain but the library only had this book by Nan Shepherd. I am glad I gave it a go as it hints at the living mountain as being a very good book.
