This is a book about ten women over the past three hundred years who have found walking essential to their sense of themselves, as people and as writers. Wanderers traces their footsteps, from eighteenth-century parson's daughter Elizabeth Carter--who desired nothing more than to be taken for a vagabond in the wilds of southern England--to modern walker-writers such as Nan Shepherd and Cheryl Strayed. For each, walking was integral, whether it was rambling for miles across the Highlands, like Sarah Stoddart Hazlitt, or pacing novels into being, as Virginia Woolf did around Bloomsbury. Offering a beguiling view of the history of walking, Wanderers guides us through the different ways of seeing--of being--articulated by these ten pathfinding women.

The desire to walk is something that defines us, bringing joy, connection and freedom. But what happens to all this when we become mothers? From the author of Wanderers, comes an urgent exploration of what it means to rediscover ourselves through the land we walk and the people we walk alongside. ___ In the wake of the complete metamorphosis of becoming a mother, Kerri Andrews determines to undertake a series of journeys on foot to understand what has happened to her. Alongside a backpack full of supplies, Kerri carries with her the shadow of post-natal depression and the idea that maybe the hills are no longer for those, like her, who bear the mental and physical scars of childbearing and childrearing. Yet, what she soon discovers are tales of mother-walkers that have long been neglected or hidden away. From Mary Wollstonecraft and Ellen Weeton to Kate Chopin, here are women whose urgent stories offer new ways of stepping into motherhood. As Kerri traverses urban, rural and increasingly mountainous landscapes in the North West and Scotland, she is joined by women who have also experienced the profound changes that having children can bring to bodies and minds. Together, they explore the complicated ground of motherhood today – balancing enormous responsibility and upheaval with ambition, rage and hope – creating new paths as they go. ___ ‘Left me itching to lace up my boots and follow the call of the path.’ Laura Pashby, author of Chasing Fog ‘Bold, brave... I had the feeling, as I read, that Kerri Andrews might be clearing a path for us all.’ Helen Jukes, author of Mother Animal ‘Powerful and unflinchingly honest’ Annabel Abbs, author of Windswept: Why Women Walk ‘A seductive book that leads us as close to the nature and people of an intriguing place as words can.’ Tristan Gooley, author of How to Read a Tree

* LoveReading’s Best Books of the Year 2025 From the author of Wanderers: A History of Women Walking ___ Can one new mother rediscover a path back to the hills and to freedom? ‘Left me itching to lace up my boots and follow the call of the path.’ Laura Pashby, author of Chasing Fog ___ In the wake of the complete upheaval of becoming a mother, walker Kerri Andrews finds herself carrying the idea that maybe the hills are no longer for her. Yet, what she soon discovers are tales of mother-walkers that have long been neglected or hidden away. And with it a sense that there may be a way back into the mountains for her too. So Kerri begins small, joined on walks on beaches and in cities by women who have also experienced profound changes to their sense of themselves and their bodies. And as Kerri’s journeys become increasingly ambitious – the valleys and peaks of her past beckoning – it becomes clear that these wild places could be hers once more. That there may indeed be a way back to the mountains, and to freedom. ___ ‘Bold, brave’ Helen Jukes, author of Mother Animal ‘Powerful and unflinchingly honest’ Annabel Abbs, author of Windswept

Join bestselling author Kerri Andrews and ten other women as they each narrate walks that will challenge, inspire and fascinate you. Following on from Kerri Andrews’ bestselling book Wanderers, which retold the history of walking through ten women, Women, Walking is an agenda-setting, contemporary exploration of women setting foot outdoors now, and what that means. This groundbreaking collection brings together many of the most prominent and exciting voices of the last decade across poetry, fiction, essays and journalism: Anna Fleming, Anita Sethi, Beatrice Searle, Gail Simmons, Helen Mort, Josie Giles, Kate Davis, Katharine Norbury, Linda Cracknell and Polly Atkin. From an evocative and moving account by Beatrice Searle on walking with her mother to Gail Simmons celebrating the low-key wonders of the incidental walks we take every day, from Linda Cracknell on her walk to the shops – when the shops are two days’ walk away – and the enjoyment of the changing landscape she passes through to Kate Davis on why walking matters more when disability prevents you from doing it ‘properly’, this rich collection rewrites the notion that walking is always vigorous, enjoyable and universal. Instead, it confirms the importance of every kind of walking as a political and creative act of belonging. Moving and radical, Women, Walking challenges our notions of what walking is, and who it is for – and encourages us all to get outside, know our surroundings and find our voice.

It looks human. It walks among us, watches us, and learns from us, without exposing its secret.Through the ages, Prometheus's artificial eyes have observed humanity at its best and its worst. It has seen us rise to challenges and fall into hubris, risk all for the sake of others, and commit unspeakable atrocities. The Probe observes the human condition and reports its findings to its creator. And sometimes, it acts.THE PROMETHEUS SAGA is an anthology, thirteen speculative stories that explore what it means to be human.

Archipelago is one of the most important and influential literary magazines of the last twenty years. Running to twelve editions, it was edited by Andrew McNeillie, with the assistance later of James McDonald Lockhart, and began as an attempt to reimagine the relationships between the islands of Ireland and Britain. Archipelago has brought together established and emerging artists in creative conversations that have transformed the study of islands, coasts and waterways. It journeys from the Shetlands to Cornwall, from the Aran Islands to the coast of Yorkshire, tracing the cultures of diverse zones through some of the best in contemporary writing about place and people. This collection gathers poetry, prose and visual art in clusters grouped around the Irish and British archipelago, with contributions from an array of significant artists. It includes newly commissioned work as well as an interview between Andrew McNeillie and Robert Macfarlane on the development of Archipelago across the years.

Mit Karriere der Narren muss Andreas H hle keinen Vergleich mit der f hrenden deutschsprachigen Literatur scheuen. Politisch brisant ohne politisch zu sein, wagt es H hle, Wahrheiten niederzuschreiben, die so schon l ngst h tten gesagt werden m ssen. Bekannt geworden ist Andreas H hle haupts chlich als tiefsinniger Textautor f r verschiedene musikalische Unternehmungen und K nstler. Mit zw lf Jahren begann er zu texten, mit sechzehn Jahren schrieb er seinen ersten Hit, mittlerweile gilt H hle als einer der gefragtesten Liedtexter Deutschlands. Und nun geht er literarisch fremd. Mit einer f r Prosa ungew hnlich lyrischen Sprache und auf den ersten Blick absurd erscheinenden Plots, die aus ihrem Surrealismus schon beim ersten Lesen traumatisch in die Realit t eingreifen, pr sentiert sich H hle erstmalig mit einem gro en zusammenh ngenden Werk als Prosaautor.
