The goshawk

White, T.H.2015
Books, Manuscripts
Between human beings and other animals there exists both an unbridgeable gulf and an insurmountable attraction. T.H. White recalls his relationship with a young goshawk & how in training the bird they together entered a state of delirium & intoxication, a mixture of attraction & repulsion that he conceives as not unlike love.
