Alice Vincent is on a quest to change that. To understand what encourages women to go out, work the soil, plant seeds and nurture them, even when so many other responsibilities sit upon their shoulders. To recover the histories that have been lost among the soil.Why Women Grow is a much-needed exploration of why women turn to the earth, as gardeners, growers and custodians. This book emerged from a deeply rooted desire to share the stories of women who are silenced and overlooked. In doing so, Alice fosters connections with gardeners that unfurl into a tender exploration of women's lives, their gardens and what the ground has offered them, with conversations spanning creation and loss, celebration and grief, power, protest, identity and renaissance.Wise, curious and sensitive, Why Women Grow follows Alice in her search for answers, with inquisitive fronds reaching and curling around the intimate anecdotes of others. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Faber","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":50416768188747,"sku":"2171619","price":10.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":50416767500619,"sku":"2003424","price":16.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/51NlEbS3MYL._SX312_BO1204203200__4c89a773_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726709670"},{"product_id":"hark-how-women-listen","title":"Hark: How Women Listen","description":"\u003cp\u003eWe're told women are good at listening, but we rarely examine what they're listening to, what their worlds sound like, or how it feels to be expected to listen in a world of noise made by men.Like so many of us, Alice Vincent had become overwhelmed by the sensory overload punctuating our every moment. And then, a baby's heartbeat arrived. A rapid, pulsing whoosh of white noise. An undeniable rhythm. Once again, Alice's life became cacophonous - both with a new child, but also with the societal pressures that motherhood holds.What followed was a personal quest to rediscover sound as something alive and vital and restorative. Beyond music, Alice's journey takes her into new corners of listening: from the phantom crying heard by mothers across the world to the nightingale's song and the crackle of the Aurora Borealis. As our attention spans shrink and our sense of disconnection grows, Alice wants to find out if sound - seeking it, trying to hold on to it, making space for it in her life - can reconnect her not only to lost parts of herself but to a life more consciously lived. Hark is a book for women who feel unheard and a means of listening more deeply in a world that has grown too loud.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Canongate","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":51026739462475,"sku":"2237350","price":18.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Hardback| Signed","offer_id":51749917589835,"sku":"R9000-1582","price":18.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/41eOqpTwkL._SY445_SX342__ec773d56_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1735578743"}],"url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/collections\/alice-vincent.oembed","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
