In Holloway, "a perfect miniature prose-poem" (William Dalrymple),
Macfarlane, artist Stanley Donwood, and writer Dan Richards travel
to Dorset, near the south coast of England, to explore a famed
"hollowed way"-a path used by walkers and riders for so many
centuries that it has become worn far down into the soft golden
bedrock of the region. In Ness, "a triumphant libretto of mythic
modernism for our poisoned age" (Max Porter), Macfarlane and
Donwood create a modern myth about Orford Ness, the ten-mile-long
shingle spit that lies off the coast of East Anglia, which the
British government used for decades to conduct secret weapons
tests.
