The Visionary Heart of Dorothy Wordsworth, edited by Stuart Harris
The Visionary Heart of Dorothy Wordsworth, edited by Stuart Harris
An album of vivid descriptions of nature, Romantic in feeling yet photographic in their sharp focus, written by Dorothy Wordsworth, sister of the Lake Poet, William Wordsworth.
The descriptions, taken from Dorothy’s Journals, are presented in this beautiful booklet as 24 short poems edited by Stuart Harris.
The booklet’s cover features a photograph of a resplendent silver birch tree by Emma Clinton, who also designed the back cover showing a detail from a painting of Watendlath by the Cumbrian artist, Frances Winder.
Silver birch trees held a particular fascination for Dorothy Wordsworth, as will be seen from her writings.
A wonderful gift for a nature lover, the poetry is mediative and encourages a deeper connection with the natural world.
