'A beautifully written exploration of nature, memory and life itself. Wonderfully mellow, a golden read' MATT HAIG
'Profoundly captivating, a beautiful book that lingers in the mind.' ELIF SHAFAK
'When the leaves turn to copper and there is dew on the grass in the early morning, I still have that same spike of expectation and anticipation'
In Autumn, Kate Mosse celebrates the season of shifting light and crisp mornings. This magical journey through the turning year captures the ever-changing colours of the autumn landscape, the crunch of leaves underfoot, the drift of migrating birds and the last warmth of the sun.
Starting in her own garden, Kate leads us out to the misty Fishbourne marshes of her childhood, with their vast skies and wading birds, and into ancient yew forests/ steeped in myth and mystery. We travel across the harvest fields, follow the river bends of the Ouse and the Lavant, and join the crowds at Lewes on Bonfire Night, where the air crackles with flame and torchlight.
Exploring nature, folklore, memory and history, Autumn is a love letter to Sussex and an atmospheric portrait of the season from one of our most celebrated writers.©2026 Kate Mosse (P)2026 Hodder & Stoughton Limited

Critics' reviews
A beautifully written exploration of nature, memory and life itself. Wonderfully mellow, a golden read (MATT HAIG)
Profoundly captivating, a beautiful book that lingers in the mind (ELIF SHAFAK)
Full of warmth and joy, and a love of people, places and nature. I adored this book. (CAROLINE QUENTIN)
Tender reflections on time and place... Mosse takes infectious delight in weaving her memories through bronze age camps, iron age forts, wetlands, the downs and the Devil's Dyke, composing a hymn to Sussex's countryside and braiding rambly byways of fact and legend with personal memories.
Kate Mosse is a persuasive advocate for the joys of autumn. Her advice is to immerse yourself in the season and 'remember to marvel at the world around us'
