Raising Hare – Chloe Dalton

Beschrijving

When Chloe, a young woman with a busy job, finds an abandoned, newborn, tiny hare near her home in the countryside, she feels compelled to give it a chance at survival – even though she is definitely the most unlikely caregiver for the animal.
A Hare in the House tells the story of their journey together. It gives us a sense of awe for nature. Their unlikely bond of trust reminds us that the most extraordinary and hopeful experiences often arise when we least expect them.

Chloe Dalton is a writer and political advisor. She was involved in British foreign policy for more than ten years. She divides her time between London and her home in the English countryside. A Hare in the House is her first book. It was shortlisted for the Women’s Prize for Non-Fiction and Waterstones Book of the Year, and was named Book of the Year by The Sunday Times, The Times, The Financial Times and The Spectator, among others.
