_________ The uplifting true story of the couple who lost
everything and embarked on a journey of salvation across the
windswept South West coastline. THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER &
SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2018 COSTA BIOGRAPHY AWARD & WAINWRIGHT
GOLDEN BEER BOOK PRIZE 2018 'A beautiful, thoughtful, lyrical story
of homelessness, human strength and endurance' Guardian _________
Just days after Raynor learns that Moth, her husband of 32 years,
is terminally ill, their home is taken away and they lose their
livelihood. With nothing left and little time, they make the brave
and impulsive decision to walk the 630 miles of the sea-swept South
West Coast Path, from Somerset to Dorset, via Devon and Cornwall.
Carrying only the essentials for survival on their backs, they live
wild in the ancient, weathered landscape of cliffs, sea and sky.
Yet through every step, every encounter and every test along the
way, their walk becomes a remarkable journey. The Salt Path is an
honest and life-affirming true story of coming to terms with grief
and the healing power of the natural world. Ultimately, it is a
portrayal of home, and how it can be lost, rebuilt and rediscovered
in the most unexpected ways. _________ 'Mesmerising. It is one of
the most uplifting, inspiring books that I've ever read' i 'A
thoughtful, lyrical story of homelessness, strength and endurance'
The Week 'The most inspirational book of this year' The Times 'An
astonishing narrative of two people dragging themselves from the
depths of despair along some of the most dramatic landscapes in the
country, looking for a solution to their problems and ultimately
finding themselves' Independent 'The landscape is magical:
shape-shifting seas and smugglers' coves; myriads of sea birds and
mauve skies. Raynor writes exquisitely . . . It's a tale of
triumph: of hope over despair; of love over everything . . .' The
Sunday Times 'The Salt Path is a life-affirming tale of enduring
love that smells of the sea and tastes of a rich life. With
beautiful, immersive writing, it is a story heart-achingly and
beautifully told.' Jackie Morris
