H is for Hawk
(Book on CD)

Compact discs.

Read by Helen MacDonald.

When Helen Macdonald's father died suddenly on a London street, she was devastated. An experienced falconer captivated by hawks since childhood, she'd never before been tempted to train one of the most vicious predators: the goshawk. But in her grief, she saw that the goshawk's fierce and feral anger mirrored her own. Heartbreaking and hilarious, this is an unflinching account of bereavement, a unique look at the magnetism of an extraordinary beast, and the story of a legendary writer.
