I Hate the Lake District
An alternative view of the North West of England that reveals the landscape of North West England as profoundly unnatural and strange.I Hate the Lake District offers a different vision of the rural environment from those found in much contemporary nature writing. Each chapter starts with an account of a visit to a place in this remote part of England, the deep north, but digresses and wanders through multifarious themes and subjects.Among the sites Gere visits are the defunct nuclear power station at Sellafield, home of all British nuclear waste; Lake Coniston, where Donald Campbell died Based on the author's trips around North West England, the book engages with nuclear power and nuclear war, slavery, imperialism, ghosts, love, God, cockroaches and the sheer violence and contingency of "nature" itself--of which the human presence is merely a part.
