Product Information

I have really enjoyed following the adventures of raynor winn and her husband. She is so consistent with her imagery and information while they are on their travels. In Landlines, she records in luminous prose the strangers and friends, wilderness and wildlife they encounter on the way - it's a journey that begins in fear but can only end in hope. Inspiring. The narrative is so vividly drawn and emotionally resonant that most readers will come to feel like one of the family, sharing their pain and uncertainty and eventual triumph. This is an unforgettable story about fragility girded by resolve and the courage to keep going, even if it’s just that one more step, and to hold fast to hope. Winn exudes the soul of a poet and the grit of a survivor.” The cover of the book is amazing as were her other books. Raynor Winn is an absolutely first class author. Her books are my absolute favourites. The powerful story of a 1,000-mile healing walk—from the lochs of Scotland to England's southwest coast—in a remarkable evocation of modern-day Britain.

A captivating reflection on nature and the lines that divide and shape countries and people. Sainsbury's Magazine But for all the physical struggle, there is healing.

Hers is a voice of empathy and integrity * GUARDIAN * Landlines is both an inspiring testament to fortitude and a plea to save a burning planet. Winn fills her work with rich metaphors drawn from the natural world. The Washington Post In dit derde boek vervalt Raynor in herhaling. Dat past bij wandelboeken, maar op een gegeven moment vind ik het veel van hetzelfde. I found Landlines to be significantly more tense and mournful than Winn's previous books. Weighed on by concern for Moth's health, this time the couples pilgrim through the wild seems like something of a last cry for help. This, combined with observations on the effect climate change is having on the landscape they walk through makes for bleak reading at times. However, the miraculous strength and comitment they share continues to be inspiring. Buoyed by hope, they once more achieve what, from the outside, seems impossible. Landlines is a moving continuation to an incredible, astonishing journey.

Raynor knows that her husband Moth's health is declining, getting worse by the day. She knows of only one cure: the healing power of walking. This is a story of grit and persistence, but most importantly, a tale of putting oneself ‘in the way of hope.’ Readers familiar with the couple's previous adventures especially will love this third installment.”
