Description
Walking the northern stretch of the South West Coast Path, Sasha Swire embarks on an immersive journey along Britain's windswept western fringes. Spanning over a decade, her walks take her from Minehead in Somerset to Land's End in Cornwall, each year returning like a migratory bird.
Through her contemplative and personal exploration of the coastline, Swire uncovers the significance of edges in our perception of the world and our attitude towards it. She observes how these boundaries not only shape flora and fauna but also bring people together, foster creativity, and inspire resistance. This is a story about the resilience of both nature and humanity in the face of adversity.
As Swire walks, she discovers that the path is more than just a route through rugged landscapes - it's a tale of how we've learned to coexist with the forces that challenge us. With each step, she reflects on the power of edges to shape our world and our place within it.
