She learned the arcane terminology and read all the classic books, including T.H. White's tortured masterpiece, The Goshawk, which describes White's struggle to train a hawk as a spiritual contest. When her father dies and she is knocked sideways by grief, she becomes obsessed with the idea of training her own goshawk. She buys Mabel for £800 on a Scottish quayside and takes her home to Cambridge, embarking on the long, strange business of trying to train this wildest of animals.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eH Is for Hawk is a record of a spiritual journey--an unflinchingly honest account of Macdonald's struggle with grief during the difficult process of the hawk's taming and her own untaming. It's a book about memory, nature, and how it might be possible to try to reconcile death with life and love.","brand":"Penguin Group","offers":[{"title":"Bargain","offer_id":42822492356688,"sku":"9780143194675B","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/8173\/5760\/files\/9780143194675-l.jpg?v=1785888210","url":"https:\/\/bookoutlet.com\/products\/h-is-for-hawk-9780143194675b","provider":"Book Outlet","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
