Bøger af Raynor Winn

I løbet af få dage vendes Raynor Winns liv på hovedet. Hendes mand gennem toogtredive år, Moth, får stillet en dødelig diagnose, og de mister deres hjem og levebrød. De har intet tilbage, og heller ikke meget tid, og de beslutter impulsivt at vandre den tusind kilometer lange South West Coast Path langs kysten i det sydvestlige England. Alt, hvad de ejer, bærer de i deres rygsække. På turen mærker de en ny frihed, nærkontakt med naturen og deres egen eksistens. Men hvad venter dem for enden af stien?

Opfølgeren til Saltstien Efter at Raynor og hendes mand Moth har vandret den tusind kilometer lange Sydvestkyststi som hjemløse, ruinerede og – i Moths tilfælde – ramt af dødelig sygdom, føles den vilde og vindblæste kyst nu som hjem for ægteparret. Moth syntes at have fået det bedre under vandreturen, men tilbage mellem fire vægge mærker han, hvordan det normale liv svækker hans helbred igen. Men så møder de en mand, der er blevet grebet af deres historie, og som tilbyder ægteparret mulighed for at genfinde kontakten med naturen i et misligholdt hus, dybt inde i Cornwalls bakker. I Den vilde stilhed fortæller Raynor om, hvad der skete før og efter Saltstien – om livslang kærlighed, som ingen modgang kan ødelægge, om at opbygge et nyt hjem og om naturens helbredende kraft.

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.Raynor Winn knows that her husband Moth’s health is declining, getting worse by the day. She knows of only one cure. It worked once before. But will he—can he?—set out with her on another healing walk? The Cape Wrath Trail is hundreds of miles of grueling terrain through Scotland's remotest mountains and lochs. But the lure of the wilderness and the beguiling beauty of the awaiting glens draw them northwards. Being one with nature saved them in their darkest hour years earlier—and their hope is that this experience can work its magic again. So Raynor and Moth embark on an incredible thousand-mile journey: from Scotland to the familiar shores of the South West Coast Path, from Northumberland to the Yorkshire moors, and from Wales to home again. As they map with each step the landscape of their island nation, they find themselves facing existential questions—about themselves and about their country—during this epic, inspiring odyssey.
