Tivington Nott by Alex Miller

5.0

The Tivington Nott, which was first published in 1989, has just been made available to British readers for the first time thanks to a reprint by the publisher Allen & Unwin UK. It is an extraordinarily vivid account of one young man's participation in a stag hunt on the Exmoor borders and is filled with beautiful descriptions of Nature and the countryside — "the last ancient homeland of the wild red deer in England" — as well as depicting the bond between horse and rider like nothing I have ever read before.
