For fans of Maid and readers of James Herriot (All Things Bright and Beautiful and All Creatures Great and Small), Seed to Dust follows a year in the life of a professional gardener at work on a sprawling British country estate owned by his mysterious employer, "Miss Cashmere".
Hamer's musings on his mysterious, enigmatic employer and on his own life - including a period spent homeless as a teenager - add a layer of mystery and sentiment to his unusually compelling gardening memoir.
Publishes in conjunction with National Gardening Month (April).
Highly anticipated follow up to the Indie Next Pick and Hamer's critically acclaimed memoir How to Catch a Mole.
A poetic and evocative meditation on the cycles of nature, and life itself.
A unique piece of nature writing that combines memoir, gardening and folklore, with philosophical musings and natural history.
Hamer's How to Catch a Mole was longlisted for the prestigious Wainwright Prize.
