Publisher's Synopsis

The Long Field burrows deep into the Welsh countryside to tell how this small country became a big part of an American writer's life. Petro twines her story around that of Wales by viewing both through the lens of hiraeth, the name for the bone-deep longing for something or someone - a home, culture, language, or a younger self.

About the Publisher

Little Toller Books

Little Toller Books was born in 2008 as an imprint of the Dovecote Press, a family-run publishing company that has specialised in books about rural life and local history since 1974. Little Toller was started with a singular purpose: to revive forgotten and classic books about nature and rural life in the British Isles. The success of Little Toller's Nature Classics has enabled it to grow into an independent publisher, attuned to writers and artists who seek inventive ways to reconnect us with the natural world and to celebrate the places we live in.
