In this beautifully written nature narrative, Tiffany Francis explores nocturnal landscapes and investigates how our experiences of the nighttime world have permeated our history, folklore, science, geography, art, and literature.Darkness has shaped the lives of humans for millennia, and in Dark Skies, author Tiffany Francis travels around Britain and Europe to learn more about nocturnal landscapes and humanitys connection to the night sky.Over the course of a year, Tiffany travels through different nightscapes across the UK and beyond. She experiences 24hour daylight while swimming in the Gulf of Finland and visits Norway to witness the Northern Lights and speak to people who live in darkness for three months each year. She hikes through the haunted yew forests of Kingley Vale, embarks on a nocturnal sail down the River Dart, feeds foxes on a south London estate, and listens to nightjars churring on a Sussex heathland.As she travels, Tiffany delves into the history of the ancient rituals and seasonal festivals that for thousands of years humans have linked with the light and dark halves of our year. How has our relationship with darkness and the night sky changed over time? How have we used stars and other cosmic phenomena to tell stories about our lives and the land around us?

I was really looking forward to this book, but it didn't quite match my expectations based on the title. Some parts felt a bit scattered and less focused on the night aspect. I still enjoyed the insights into wildlife, but I was hoping for more cohesive storytelling.

Thought-provoking read with some flaws
This book is an interesting mix of stories about the wild, but I found a few of the narratives a bit slow. The writing style is engaging, though, and I appreciate how it encourages readers to consider our relationship with nature. It just took me a bit longer to get through than I expected.

A beautiful exploration of nature
I picked up 'A Journey Into the Wild Night' from Dark Skies for my nature-loving partner, and they absolutely adore it! The illustrations are stunning and really capture the essence of the wilderness. It’s become our go-to when we sit outside at night, connecting with nature through its pages.
