    The mysteries of a Dartmoor village
  

*by C***D on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 12, 2022*

A set of connected stories (somewhere between chapters and short stories) about a fictional village, although that doesn't do the book justice in the slightest. You can feel the damp, the mystery, the mythology, the pull of the land in each of these stories while also getting introduced to the wonderful characters that live and pass through Underhill. It's a nature book, in a way, but it's also about community and loneliness, about creativity, about interesting characters, even when they don't think about themselves. In the end I want more about Underhill and the characters, it vaguely reminds me of Tolkien (at least in Fellowship or maybe the Hobbit) and the included map doesn't hurt either, but he's created a world with deep mystery, mythology, and history that I want to read more about. Rarely is there a book where I want to start re-reading it the moment I'm done to go back and find all the various connections and threads that I missed the first time.Cox can really write - there are long stretches of prose that will slice through your mind and heart like a long note from a cello in an old barn, with resonance and emotion. But this book isn't for everybody; it's slow at times and you have to be willing to let him get where he's going at his pace, but if you give in and just absorb it, it's worth it. Also, anybody who is deep into music or record collecting and the ideas of discovering that long last album will have an extra appreciation for this book.

    A gleeful romp
  

*by B***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 25, 2022*

A gleeful romp, oozing with chaotic energy, magical realism, laugh-out-loud irreverence, dark warnings and so many insights that, if you’re at all like this reader, entire sections will be marked out and dog-eared for re-reading.In its essence a passionately-held treaty on our tremulous and vulnerable earthly communion, (an appeal to our collective conscience), there’s a playfulness to the writing that cannot help but get inside your head - sardonic, observant, hilarious, but also censorious - worried, genuinely hurting for the wrongs we as humans inflict on each other, on animals, the Earth, and Nature itself - the spirit of Nature, which ultimately is seeking to regain the balance we have tinkered with in ways too terrible to ignore.Stylistically, the writing is challenging (“truly and beautifully of itself”) and, by design, not for the feint-of-heart. But oh, is it worth the effort!An outpouring of stories (some vignettes and others longer, connected and more episodic), will take time and effort to make sense of, feeling fragmented initially - until you come across the first flash of insight, a quip or observation so keenly resonant or humorous that the world slows, and nothing becomes more important than your vivid appreciation of the insights unraveling in place in front of you.A theme of sorts, and what feels like the beginning at least, of an understanding,  will, if you stick with it, emerge. This is, when all is said and done, a re-telling of the unfolding of life, in all its forms, in a very particular place but across the “ghosts of time” and all other ethereal boundaries - the “spirit” of a small moored village, Underhill (on the Tor), anthropomorphic in its very nature, telling us its story, - the story of the lives and worlds set down over time;  absorbed, digested and roiling in its very essence; now clamoring for attention.The story-tellers, themselves a collage of odd and eccentric characters, creatures, spirits, and life-forms, - many centering around a folksinger from the sixties who unwittingly captures the essence of the Tor in what will eventually become a cult following of his music,This book is lush with supporting themes that run the gamut, but perhaps focus most keenly on the march of the “giant black legs” of technology,  digitization, social atrophy, environmental catastrophe, corporate greed,  ego vs convergence,  and the underlying yearning for recognition of the primal connection that ties all of it, all of us and the world we experience, and are, together.As it absorbs us, we are urged, collectively, to “jump the sun”, to re-absorb the spirit of Nature around us that is, and will become again, our very essence.The “real and vivid “ world we construct, in our heads (which is all that really matters) and how we “repaint the world”, is up to each of us.  All of us.“To do something too, to not just be here, standing still”.A brilliant read, with words, ultimately, of hope, this book is highly recommended for those readers who are prepared to invest in its wisdom. In the opinion of this reader, a journey of time not only well-spent but long overdue.A great big thank you to the author and the publisher for an ARC of this book. All thoughts presented are my own.

    A stellar work!
  

*by T***D on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 23, 2022*

Tox Cox 'comes of age' with his best book so far.With this book Tom proves himself to be a master storyteller, weaving a complex tapestry of history, society, and popular culture that spans the ages of a west country English town.
