Sinossi

Welcome back to Pete's Cornish shed, where you'll find a generous second helping of treats from his popular Backalong column in Cornwall Today magazine. Some familiar themes are revisited. He's still devoted to his geese and chickens, still thinking about what it means to be Cornish, and still praying that frost won't wipe out his tender exotics. But he's also baffled as to why people have started queueing at the bar of his local, and how Ross Poldark always manages to travel directly inland to Truro by galloping for miles along the coast path. He agonises over when to pull the plug on a doomed fishing trip, offers advice on coping with the onslaught of summer house guests, and explains why many Cornish people just don't get the phrase 'north/south divide'. Most importantly, he still hasn't found his flip-flop.

Informazioni sull?autore

Pete Cross was born in Redruth in 1962 and grew up in Truro, then gained an honours degree from Bath Academy of Art. After fifteen years combining the London publishing world with travelling, he returned to Cornwall at the beginning of the new millennium, and began writing a column for Cornwall Today magazine. It soon became known as Backalong. He has written for many other publications, including The Times, The Daily Telegraph, the Wildlife Trusts and the RSPB. His children's book, Shadows in the Sky, was published in 2007 to widespread acclaim, and won the Waterstones Holyer an Gof Special Prize. His first anthology of Backalong columns, Notes from a Cornish Shed, was published at the end of 2013.
