A lost classic of nature writing which sits alongside Tarka the Otter, Watership Down, War Horse and The Story of a Red Deer

I have never read a novel about animals and the British countryside - with the single exception of BB's The Wild Lone - which has so moved or entranced me. Never * John Lewis-Stempel, bestselling author of Meadowland and The Running Hare * A Black Fox Running is really extraordinary, I've not read anything like it before. Balancing and melding animal and human worlds, this is a wholly immersive, vivid and magical book * Tim Pears, author of The Horseman * A book of strange, mesmeric power. Poised, impeccably paced and observed, and brutally unsentimental. A thrilling, urgent, almost shamanic journey into the wild - including the wilderness of our own human lives * Charles Foster, author of Being a Beast * A wonderful book ... The prose is beautiful, and the story, though like nature pocked with horror, is beautiful too * Cynan Jones, author of Cove * A breathtakingly beautiful novel, this lost classic of nature writing is the book that made me a writer * Melissa Harrison * For those who dream of leaving behind the noise and smells of the city and breathing the clean air and adventure of the wild ... A Black Fox Running is the thing those dreams are made of * Torbay News *
