Many of us enjoy walking along a familiar path. Our spirits lift as our mind settles and our soul is restored by the beauty of the natural landscape.

In Path a solitary figure walks along ancient pathways, between slender trees, across open hills. As the earth itself provides support and reassurance, they walk through isolation and uncertainty towards an understanding that they - we - are not alone, but part of the fabric of the world.

With evocative photography and illustrations inspired by the pathways across the South Downs in rural England, Path is a contemplative journey written in poetic prose that embodies the steady rhythms and joy of walking, and captures our reciprocal relationship with the land.

Now in paperback, Path features a brand new preface by the author, Louisa Thomsen Brits, that reveals the unexpected journey she undertook just days after the book was first published in 2018 - and how her own words helped her to navigate a different kind of path through diagnosis and treatment towards healing.

Industry Reviews

"A wonderfully meditative little book, full of moments of calm and wisdom" - Hole & Corner

"A book to be read slowly and read again... Path quietly asserts the interconnectedness of people, and if ever a point needed to be reaffirmed, then it is this one, right now" - Elementum Journal

"Blends poetry, prose and non-fiction writing to create a thought-provoking and immersive work about walking through nature." - Caught by the River

"I only need open my copy of Path to feel a sense of restoration and calm. It's such a precious book; the very pages speak." - The Unhurried Reader
