THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER The incredible follow-up to one of the
most talked about books of the decade - the phenomenon, Waterstones
Book of the Month and Costa Award shortlisted The Salt Path.
_______ 'Extraordinary: wise, unflinching, exquisite. Profound'
Observer 'A thrill to read. The nature writing is beautiful . . .
heartening and comforting. You feel the world is a better place'
The Times _______ Nature holds the answers for Raynor and her
husband Moth. After walking 630 miles homeless along The Salt Path,
the windswept and wild English coastline now feels like their home.
And despite Moth's terminal diagnosis, against all medical odds, he
seems revitalized in nature - outside, they discover that anything
is possible. Now, life beyond The Salt Path awaits. As they return
to four walls, the sense of home is illusive and returning to
normality is proving difficult - until an incredible gesture by
someone who reads their story changes everything: A chance to
breathe life back into a beautiful but neglected farmhouse nestled
deep in the Cornish hills; rewilding the land and returning nature
to its hedgerows becomes their new path. Along the way, Raynor and
Moth learn more about the land that envelopes them, find friends
both new and old, and, of course, embark on another windswept
adventure when the opportunity arises. The Wild Silence is a
luminous story of hope triumphing over despair, of the human
spirit's instinctive connection to nature, and of lifelong love
prevailing over everything. _______ 'Raynor Winn has written a
brilliant, powerful and touching account of her life before and
after The Salt Path, which, like her astonishing debut, will
connect with anyone who has triumphed over adversity' Stephen Moss,
author and naturalist 'A beautiful, luminous and magical piece of
writing' Rachel Joyce, author of The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold
Fry 'So moving, it made me cry . . . repeatedly. Confirms Winn as a
natural and extremely talented writer with an incredible way with
words' Sophie Raworth 'A must read for anyone inspired by The Salt
Path' Good Housekeeping 'An uplifting, illuminating read' Daily
Mirror 'Heart-rending. A love letter to the natural world in all
its wondrous glory . . . spellbinding' Herald Praise for The Salt
Path '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 'This is what you
need right now to muster hope and resilience . . . a beautiful
story and a reminder that humans can endure adversity' Stylist 'The
landscape is magical: shapeshifting 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' 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, illustrator of The Lost Words by
Robert Macfarlane
