Bloomsbury presents The Fullness of Time: Marking the Day by Birdsong, Blooms, Shadows and Stars by Cathy Haynes, read by Nadia Albina.
'Fascinating and full of beauty' KATHERINE MAY, author of Wintering
A journey into the forgotten art of marking time through signs in the world around us – from the slow sliding of sunbeams to the wheeling of the stars.
Past generations would tell time by shadows shrinking, the midday glow over a mountaintop, the crowing of the rooster in the darkness. They noticed the flowers that close at noon, sensed how the quality of light changes at dusk, and marked time at night by the motion of the stars.
