Description

The world is shrouded in snow. With transport ground to a halt, Tom must venture out into a transformed and treacherous landscape to collect his son, who is stranded in student lodgings. This poignant novella explores the complexities of father-son relationships, grief, memory, family, and love. As Tom embarks on this solitary drive from Belfast to Sunderland, he is drawn into another journey - one without map or guide. Haunted by memories and clouded by regret, he must chart pathways of family history that are fraught with pain and powerlessness. A beautifully written exploration of the human experience, Travelling in a Strange Land is a moving and transformative work. A novella about the gulfs that lie between us and those we love, this book is a powerful exploration of the fragility of human connection and the wrong turns we take on our way to find it.
