Extracts from Forced Fingers in The Clearing

Really pleased to have some of a long new thing, Forced Fingers, in The Clearing, a great journal that ‘publishes writing and artwork concerned with landscape and place.’ It’s also attached to one of my favourite publishers, Little Toller Books, who do fine reprints of lost nature writing. The artwork — an amazing mash-up of Chinese mega-city and eighteenth-century field work — is by Jos Smith.
