Description
Skybound A Journey in Flight by Rebecca Loncraine is a deeply moving and thrilling nature memoir that explores the author's obsession with flying and her journey towards self-discovery. After being diagnosed with breast cancer, Loncraine found solace in gliding, an unpowered flight that allowed her to reconnect with the world around her. As she soared through the skies, Loncraine discovered a new sense of freedom and purpose, taking her to some of the world's most dramatic locations, including the Black Mountains in Wales and the Nepalese Himalayas. This book is a testament to the power of nature to heal and transform us, and a reminder that it's never too late to learn to live again. With extraordinary descriptions of flying and a unique perspective on the natural world, Skybound is a book that will leave you breathless and inspired.
