Early one autumn afternoon in pursuit of an elusive book on her
shelves, Susan Hill encountered dozens of others that she had never
read, or forgotten she owned, or wanted to read for a second time.
The discovery inspired her to embark on a year-long voyage through
her books, forsaking new purchases in order to get to know her own
collection again. A book which is left on a shelf for a decade is a
dead thing, but it is also a chrysalis, packed with the potential
to burst into new life. Wandering through her house that day,
Hill's eyes were opened to how much of that life was stored in her
home, neglected for years. Howards End is on the Landing charts the
journey of one of the nation's most accomplished authors as she
revisits the conversations, libraries and bookshelves of the past
that have informed a lifetime of reading and writing.
