A review by enolas
After London: or, Wild England by Richard Jefferies
3.0
I'm so torn about this book. Part one was absolutely fascinating faux-history, and part two an enjoyable story which put me in mind of A Strange Manuscript Found In a Copper Cylinder.
The descriptive language is very evocative and paints a wonderful mental picture of this imagined land - clearly the author was a naturalist.
However, it ends so abruptly! I felt invested in the characters and would have liked to have known their fate.
