Beschrijving Salt Path

FROM THE MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR

'This is what you need right now to muster hope and resilience . . . a beautiful story and a reminder that humans can endure adversity' Stylist

'A beautiful book, it really lives up to the hype . . . an enjoyable, gentle yet moving read' Pandora Sykes on The High Low
_________

Just days after Raynor learns that Moth, her husband of 32 years, is terminally ill, their home is taken away and they lose their livelihood. With nothing left and little time, they make the brave and impulsive decision to walk the 630 miles of the sea-swept South West Coast Path, from Somerset to Dorset, via Devon and Cornwall.

Carrying only the essentials for survival on their backs, they live wild in the ancient, weathered landscape of cliffs, sea and sky. Yet through every step, every encounter and every test along the way, their walk becomes a remarkable journey.

The Salt Path is an honest and life-affirming true story of coming to terms with grief and the healing power of the natural world. Ultimately, it is a portrayal of home, and how it can be lost, rebuilt and rediscovered in the most unexpected ways.

John Berger

Iona Heath relates the importance that John Berger's work and friendship had on her working life as a GP. It includes extracts from letters that span 20 years of her correspondence with John Berger.

The Homeric Doloneia

The Doloneia is the most controversial book of the Iliad, its authenticity being doubted since antiquity. But by applying sophisticated interpretive tools, this book maintains that Iliad 10 was not composed by a single poet, that it is thematically consonant with the rest of the Iliad, and that it has evolved from an earlier Iliadic version.

Poetry of the Second World War

This new anthology brings together a generous selection of famous wartime poets alongside works by civilians and soldiers, offering a symphony of different voices, all connected in their shared experience of the Second World War.
