Underwing

Jennifer Lane is a green witch and nature writer with a background in wildlife communications. She is the author of The Wheel: A Witch's Path to Healing Through Nature and The Witch's Survival Guide: Spells for Healing From Stress and Burnout and, for young adults, The Black Air and The Second Hand Boy. As a journalist she has written for Vogue, the Guardian and the BBC, promoting the wider health benefits of nature, birdwatching and living in tune with the land. In 2018, she won a Northern Writers' Award. Jennifer is based near Manchester with her partner and a calico cat called Linnet.

'Jennifer Lane writes with clarity, honesty and care in a beautiful honouring of her daughter and of her experience of grief. Underwing will make those of us who have experienced stillbirth and miscarriage feel seen. Lane guides us through what it can mean to have a deep connection with nature severed and then slowly reformed - I am glad to read books that redefine writing about nature and Underwing does this so well' Sally Huband, author of Sea Bean
