Description

Linda Cracknell's Doubling Back Paths Trodden in Memory is a beautifully rendered account of walking and memory that explores how places immortalized in writing and memory create portals to recreate journeys of others. Through her own experiences, as well as those of others, Linda Cracknell charts the contours of history, tracing paths long mythologized by writers and relatives gone before. From the rugged terrain of Norway's mountains to the tranquil landscapes of Scotland's islands, she reflects on how walking can help us locate ourselves in time and space. This thought-provoking book has been serialized on BBC radio and published to rave reviews, offering a unique perspective on the power of memory and place.
