The Catch - Mark Wormald
It is in the midst of a swirling river, casting a line, that Mark Wormald meets Ted Hughes. Using Ted Hughes' collection of poems, River, and his fishing diaries as a guide, Mark returns again and again to the places where Ted Hughes fished.At times, he uses the fly patterns Ted recommended; at others, he uses his rods. He stands where the poet stood, forty years ago, because fishing was Ted Hughes' way of breathing - and because Ted's writing has made Mark understand that it has always been his way of breathing, too.
But it is also a release and a consolation, as he fishes after the sudden death of his mother and during the slow fading of his father.A brilliant blend of memoir and biography, The Catch is a stunning meditation on poetry and nature, and a quiet reflection on what it means to be a father and a son. It is an obsession; a fundamental connection to nature; a thrilling wildness; an elemental pursuit.
