The Salt Path by Raynor Winn

challenging dark emotional inspiring medium-paced
Winn has such an evocative way of writing, when she and Moth are at their lowest on the Coast Path, hungry and filthy, you can really feel their discomfort. Which means when they carve joy out of such small moments, you can really feel that too.

It's horrendous what this couple went through and what led them to their decision to walk the 630 South West Coast Path, and I so worried for Moth's health. But the journey is inspiring and, despite some understandable despair, full of hope. 

The connection with nature that Winn captures really left me craving it for myself. It's a really beautiful book and I can't wait to read more.
