商品簡介
In January 2017 Rebecca Schiller moved her family to the countryside to start a smallholding with little idea what that meant, the work it would involve and the skills she would need. Nevertheless she had a strong sense that something was coming and that soon she might need this land under her feet. She was right.
Earthed is the story of sowing, growing and uncovering; a time of hard physical work and a mental health crisis; six seasons of living the not-so simple life and trying to understand the past so as to learn how to live in the future. Yet as Rebecca begins to uncover the hidden woman of the plot's history - and to wrestle with this land and its legacies - she begins to suspect that the volatile world inside her head might be something more than a reflection of the increasing uncertainty outside of it. As the seasons change, bringing new hope, a diagnosis and then a global pandemic, this potentially foolhardy endeavour begins to feel like a lifeline.
Because when we find ourselves in uncharted terrain, we all need something solid beneath our feet, a way to keep ourselves earthed.
