Exploring the gardens, monuments, museums, and churches with walks
both urban and rural, from the Bronte parsonage in Haworth to Zadie
Smith's North London and Shakespeare's Stratford, The Book Lover's
Bucket List takes you through some 100 wonderfully described
literary sites and landscapes, complete with colour destination
photographs and illustrations from the British Library collections.
Start with Chaucer, Dickens and Larkin in Westminster Abbey. Spend
an afternoon at Colliers Wood Nature Reserve in Nottinghamshire and
take in the lake D. H. Lawrence described as 'all grey and
visionary, stretching into the moist, translucent vista of trees
and meadow'. Venture south to Cornwall and work your way up to the
Scottish Highlands, taking detours to Northern Ireland in the west
and Norfolk in the east - or simply drop in on the place nearest to
you. Wherever you are in the United Kingdom, you're never far from
something associated with a good book.
