A stirring and evocative meditation on the human urge for solitude across the centuries, which subtly blends memoir and nature writing with a journalist's eye for detail and a poet's clarity of vision * Stu Hannigan * Hermit is as much a story of escape as one of finding one's place in the landscape. A blend of memoir, nature writing and a re-examination of women throughout history who have sought solace in solitude, Jade Angeles Fitton has written a stunning and original book about loss, love and overcoming one's demons. -- Joanna Pocock, author of 'Surrender'
