After thirty years abroad, Jonathan Cox, a Cornishman and former
journalist, returns to Cornwall to study at Falmouth University,
accompanied by his Swiss wife, Marlis. The Cornwall Sabbatical is a
humorous chronicle of their experience as they explore
picture-perfect fishing villages and coastal coves and crisscross a
granite landscape of rugby posts, old mine stacks and the barely
discernible ruins of an ancient Celtic nation. The gritty Cornwall
of his childhood has gentrified into one of the most desirable
locations in the UK and become a magnet for Michelin restaurants
even as sharp inequalities remain. A touching story about a lost
way of life, The Cornwall Sabbatical reveals how Cornwall’s
unique geology, climate, natural history and position as the end of
the known world for much of antiquity has created a pioneering
libertarian spirit and distinctive culture that is timeless.
