'A book about what it
means to be fully alive in a time of endings: personal, planetary. Deeply
moving and rich in surprising perspectives on wild places and our relationship
to them.' - Tanya Shadrick, author of The Cure for Sleep

'Two Lights operates
at an epic scale, switching back and forth between the realms of the microscope
and the telescope. An opening sequence which describes the stupendous enormity
of a new day dawning across Eurasia verges on science fiction, and yet these
massive themes are anchored by continual references to the tiny; the golden
plover at the heart of a turning galaxy. So instead of spinning recklessly off
into the distant cosmos, Two Lights is rooted in tangibles -
simultaneously radical and earthy; superlative and sensible.' - Patrick
Laurie, author of Native: Life in a Vanishing Landscape

'A beautifully written, ultimately hopeful, journey
through all that we stand to lose on this ever-more-challenged Earth.' - Sharon
Blackie, author and a Society of Author's Roger Deakin Award winner

'Deeply personal yet always outward looking, James Roberts
delights in the world he discovers about him. Yet he also trembles, because he
understands like winter light, that world is
diminished ... and diminishing ... Two Lights reveals why all of us should be writers.' - Robert
Minhinnick, poet and author of Diary of the Last Man
