Uncover the hidden worlds beneath our feet…

In Underland, Robert Macfarlane takes us on a journey in to the worlds beneath our foot. From your ice-blue depths of Greenland’s glaciers, to the underground systems by which trees and shrubs communicate, about Underland: A Deep Time Trip from Bronze Age burial chambers to the rock and roll art of remote control Arctic sea-caves, that is a deep-time voyage into the planet’s past and potential. Global in its geography, gripping in its tone of voice and haunting in its implications, Underland is a function of large range and power, and an extraordinary new chapter in Macfarlane’s long-term exploration of landscape and the individual heart.
