A Waterside Year: Fennel's Journal No. 2
In 'A Waterside Year', Fennel takes time out, living a Thoreauvian-style existence beside a lake for a year. Here he studies the wildlife around him, lives at the pace of someone outside of normal daily life, and discovers the freedom that’s found in isolation. Ultimately he learns that freedom is not a place, but something that exists within us.
About Fennel's Journal
Fennel’s Journal is the heartfelt and entertaining account of one man’s search for an old-fashioned and peaceful rural life. Written by eccentric English countryman Fennel Hudson, the Journal traces his attempts to balance the pressures of modern living by following the mantra of ‘Stop – Unplug – Escape – Enjoy’.
Brought to life by a mixture of thought-provoking and humorous incidents, Fennel’s writing is deeply personal, self-effacing, and honest. As one reader commented, “Fennel is the only author who can make me laugh out loud and cry in the same sentence. His Journal had me constantly in tears, for all the right reasons”.
About the author:
Fennel Hudson is a lifestyle and countryside author known for his Fennel’s Journal publication and Fennel’s Priory website and broadcasts. He is a traditionalist who values old-fashioned things and champions a relaxing and peaceful rural life. Much of his writing centres on what he calls ‘The Quiet Fields’ – those quiet corners of the landscape where time moves slowly and nature exists undisturbed.
