When Martha accepts a place at university, her decision is met with a mixture of
hostility and pride by her uncomprehending family. This is the story of a young
woman's journey to maturity and independence, struggling to cope with the
intellectual and emotional challenges that surround her, at a time when such
space was rarely given freely to women. In The Quarry Wood, Nan Shepherd's
subtle prose is matched by intense and memorable descriptions of the natural
world, and a dry sense of humour. Ninety years after its first publication, it
remains as fresh and original today.
