Two friends on the fringes of societ - one a scarred Falklands veteran the other into alternative thinking - spend summer nights creating crop circles of increasing beauty and complexity. All around them the natural world hums with activity and there are occasional encounters with people, ranging from fly tippers to landowners. Rejecting the age’s materialism, they tap into an older, layered and more spiritual England, attracting media attention and tourism in the process. But the summer, like the transient circles, must end. An absorbing read.
