Common Ground

After moving from London to a new home in Yorkshire, and about to become a father for the first time, Rob Cowen finds himself in unfamiliar territory. Disoriented, he ventures out to a nearby edge-land: a pylon-slung tangle of wood, hedge, field, meadow and river that lies unclaimed and overlooked on the outskirts of town.

Aller Land

Nachdem Rob Cowen aus London zurück in die Gegend von Yorkshire zieht, wo er aufwuchs, sucht er in seiner Umgebung neuen Halt und Zugehörigkeit. Auf Streifzügen durch Feldraine, Waldstücke und über alte Bahntrassen folgt er den Einheimischen dieses Gebietes, dem Fuchs, dessen Kräfte im eisigen Winter sinken, einem Reh auf der Flucht vor seinen Jägern, Hasen, die den Frühling einläuten; und auch Menschen, die das Gebiet für sich beanspruchen. Mit der Erkenntnis, bald Vater zu werden, ändert sich Cowens Blick auf die Natur und die Verantwortung der Menschen für den Planeten. Er stellt sich den großen Fragen unserer Zeit, die von der Klimakrise bedroht ist: Was für eine Welt hinterlassen wir unseren Kindern? Können wir die Hoffnung in die Menschheit bewahren? Autofiktionale Erzählung und präzise Erkundung: Aller Land ist schon jetzt ein Klassiker des neuen Nature Writing. Kaleidoskopisch verknüpft Cowen die Lebensrealitäten von Pflanzen, Tier und Mensch im Wandel der Zeiten und schärft unseren Blick für die kleinen Details um uns herum.
