Creative Writing Masterclass | Nicola Chester – In Conversation with Joanna Dobson

Nicola Chester learned to love nature early, but soon discovered that it could be taken from her.  On Gallows Down:  Place, Protest and Belonging is a lyrical, powerful memoir charting her fight to save the wild places she calls home.  She advocates passionately for the force of writing as resistance and for the importance of knowing the storeis that shape our landscapes.  Her book won the Richard Jefferies Award for Nature Writing 2021 and was shortlisted for the Wainwright Prize 2022.
