Beautifully observed and written, particularly the sections focused on the wildlife and scenery. I found myself looking up animals and birds as they were featured and I could feel myself walking and quietly observing with the author. As someone who is quite a solitary person who also enjoys just walking on my own, soaking up the world around me I loved certain essays.
However I did skip certain essays that were very focused in ther family or Edinburgh, I think I prefer animals to people! Having said this the paragraphs describing a visit to an old people's home were particularly insightful.
A good relaxing almost meditative book for those so us that like solitude.
