We are very proud of the anthology- celebrating unconventional & overlooked beauty - slugs & snails, pigeons & weeds, and our relationship with nature. Bronwen’s painting graces the front cover, with Colin Thom’s illustrations inside. Many thanks also to @alixklingenberg.bsky.social for her foreword
