Gull Stones and Cuckoos

Gull Stones and Cuckoos is a clear-eyed, passionate and honest book of life-writing about contemporary country living in Norfolk.


Lost halls, early morning walks, stillness, fairy-light skies, telescopes on allotments, the loneliness of grief and the adventure of new places in rural Norfolk. The writers in this book are new to writing but their stories and observations are compellingly authentic.


This book has grown out of an Arts Council England project Rural Writes, a partnership between Norfolk Library and Information Service and Words and Women.
