MATT HAIG 'Quietly profound beautifully written Hare is now lodged in my heart' - TRACY
CHEVALIER Imagine you could hold a baby hare and bottle-feed it. Imagine that it lived under
your roof and lolloped around your bedroom at night drumming on the duvet cover when it wanted
your attention. Imagine that over two years later it still ran in from the fields when you
called it and snoozed in your house for hours on end. This happened to me. When Chloe a
city-dwelling professional with a high-pressure job finds a newly born hare endangered alone
and no bigger than her palm she is compelled to give it a chance at survival - despite being
the least likely caregiver to this wild animal. Raising Hare is the story of their journey
together. It chronicles an extraordinary relationship between human and animal rekindling our
sense of awe towards nature and wildlife. Their improbable bond of trust reminds us that the
most remarkable experiences inspiring the most hope often arise when we least expect them.
