Part family story, part beekeeping odyssey, The Honey Bus is a rich and lyrical memoir of a girl who journeyed into the hive-and found herself. The bees became a guiding force in May's life, teaching her about family and survival, and it was during this pivotal time in May's childhood that she learned to take care of herself. May turned to her grandfather and the art of beekeeping as an escape from her troubled reality. Everything she needed to know about life and family was right before her eyes, in the secret world of bees.
That first close encounter was at once terrifying and exhilarating for May.
She was five years old, her parents had recently split and suddenly she found herself in the care of her grandfather, an eccentric beekeeper who made honey in a rusty old military bus in the yard.
Meredith May recalls the first time a honeybee crawled on her arm. An unforgettable story about finding home in the most unusual of places, and how a tiny, little-understood insect could save a life. Repertoire Records Honeybus Story is the alternative for listeners who arent comfortable springing for Castles 2002 vintage double-CD set: all of their Deram Records sides are here, along with their Bell Records single 'She Is the Female to My Soul' b/w 'For Where Have You Been' and their Warner Bros.
