The January Man: A Year of Walking Britain by Christopher Somerville

4.0

This is a slow-moving and lovely book. I really enjoyed the author's description of his father and their relationship. Wonderful descriptions of the British countryside and nature, but what really spoke to me was this quote:
"There is no walking to compare with walking in snow.It is transcendental cleansing, walking in order to walk away from oneself,the rhythmic creak-creak of boots on snow drawing the mind away across the blank white canvas of the countryside..."
I love walking in snow.
