As an aside, I have to say, Winnβs insights into homelessness have really challenged me as a reader to reserve judgement and make space for the nuance of unique experience.
Raynor Winnβs trademark narrative voice inspires me as an author, but will live on with me as a reader. What an extraordinary writer that the world has gifted to us.

I chose to read ππ‘π πππ₯π ππππ‘, a memoir by Raynor Winn, as part of a 2023 challenge created by my friends in The Little Book Nook group. This book fulfills my own prompt of reading a book about nature, as it follows a couple on their 630-mile trek down the South West Coast Path, from Somerset to Dorset. β£
After 32 years of marriage, Moth learns he is terminally ill, and he and Raynor lose their home, all within a matter of days. Walking "homeless" through their grief along the coastal cliffs, they find an unexpected strength living in nature, redefining "home" as more than just a place. β£
I loved this heartfelt book. I could feel and taste their descriptions of the salty air, and could imagine their experiences in the natural world. What a beautiful memoir.β£

I was completely swept up in the nature and their journey along the path-- it made me appreciate nature so much. The world is so beautiful! We are so lucky to be surrounded by such a rich and giving environment. Note to self: must spend more time outside!
