THE JOY OF WALKING: SELECTED WRITINGS

EditorSuzy Cripps

January 5, 2021 Hardcover  - collectors Library edition - 200 pages

 

Classic writers remind us to saunter, march, prowl and wander in this gorgeously curated collection of writing for the everyday walker. Whether walking through awe-inspiring countryside or weaving your way through crowds in the hustle and bustle of great cities, we take thousands of steps a day. Finding meaning in movement can be difficult in today''s frenetic world. This may seem like a modern problem, but putting one foot in front of the other is something that authors have been writing about for centuries. Some like Gaskell, Wordsworth and Whitman extoll the virtues of walking in the countryside, be it on one''s own connecting with nature or as the means to really good conversation with friends. Others like Dickens and E. M. Forster explore the thrill and dangers of moving about the city, by day or by night. In The Joy of Walking you''ll find a wealth of essays, poetry and fiction celebrating and exploring the joy of walking. This edition is edited and introduced by Suzy Cripps. Part of the Macmillan Collector''s Library, a series of stunning pocket size classics. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover.
