āH is for Hawkā is unlike anything I read before. It mixes genres effortlessly, eluding all labels. Is it a nature book? Is it a memoir? Is it a deep dive into T. H. Whiteās work (the author of āThe Sword in the Stoneā)? Is it an exploration of grief? For me, itās all of the above plus the bonus that it reads like a journal. It does not have the form of one but I kept thinking of journals whilst reading. I felt like I was trespassing, witnessing the authorās deepest thoughts. Helen loses her father unexpectedly and her grief is palpable. The book is about loss, healing, humanity, and goshawks.
The writing is dense, full of vivid imagery. It demands attention. I was so absorbed by it, I finished it in 2 days. It left me floating, in a sort of a stunned daze. It made me want to travel, learn more about goshawks (I knew nothing about them before reading the book), keep a journal, pay attention to my surroundings. Iām pretty sure Iāll reread this one.
