A review by whippycleric
Tarka the Otter by Charles F. Tunnicliffe, Henry Williamson

adventurous reflective sad slow-paced

2.5

This is a very nice, emotional, book and if you're a lover of nature, especially British countryside, then you'll enjoy it. Like others have said it's very much like reading an Attenborough documentary following a single Otter. That being said the book is extremely slow, it's very realistic, but as such I don't think a huge amount of stuff actually happens to an Otter... There are parts of excitement, and emotional turmoil, however I found a large part of the book quite a lot of effort to read.
