About the author

Anne Keer lives on a hill in rural Mid Wales where nature and the land have given shape to her ideas about the natural world. Originally from a family of naturalists in Cambridge, she worked first in journalism, then in television documentary and drama for the BBC and Channel Four. Anne has an MA and a PhD in Creative Writing from Aberystwyth University. She runs a small creative writing class and tries to give nature a bit of space on the land she and her partner look after. The Wildness is her first novel.
