Resumen del Editor

Brought to you by Penguin.

The incredible, Sunday Times best-selling follow-up to one of the most talked about books of the decade, The Salt Path.

Nature holds the answers for Raynor and her husband Moth.

After walking 630 miles homeless along the Salt Path, the windswept and wild English coastline now feels like their home.

And despite Moth's terminal diagnosis, against all medical odds, he seems revitalised in nature - outside, they discover that anything is possible.

Now, life beyond the Salt Path awaits. As they return to four walls, the sense of home is illusive and returning to normality is proving difficult - until an incredible gesture by someone who reads their story changes everything:

A chance to breathe life back into a beautiful but neglected farmhouse nestled deep in the Cornish hills; rewilding the land and returning nature to its hedgerows becomes their new path.

Along the way, Raynor and Moth learn more about the land that envelopes them, find friends both new and old, and of course, embark on another windswept adventure when the opportunity arises.

The Wild Silence is a luminous story of hope triumphing over despair, of the human spirit's instinctive connection to nature and of lifelong love prevailing over everything.

Prachtig boek!

Ik leefde helemaal mee met Raynor en haar man Moth. De tegenslagen en hoe zij er naar kijkt is verfrissend. Ik genoot vooral ook van t idee dat je t gevoel hebt ook t pad te lopen, zo levensecht, terwijl ik in mijn warme huis zit met n kop thee.
Het is nog mooier als je eerst The Salt Path luistert.

A great follow up to the Salt Path

Not as complete a story as the Salt Path and fewer surprises as we already know the players in the story but every bit as entertaining and enlightening. Looking forward to Ray’s next novel to see how things work out on the farm and with Moth.

Raynor Winn is a Winner for sure!

I have just finished listening to her second book which I really enjoyed being an outdoors and nature loving enthusiast all of my 77 years and now unable to venture forth with grace and strength any more. Still walking and grateful for that!
At the beginning of the book I had to really focus to understand and hear all the words spoken due to Raynor’s different speech habits! So glad I was patient and persisted.
Thank you for providing this second book treat by a very skilled and knowledgeable writer ..... so well educated in the affairs of the great outdoors and so very compassionate to Moth and others who were blessed to share in these journeys.

Abridged version would be suggested.

The first book, the salt path, was great! There was a lot of excitement and a lot to be said. The sequel however seems to be much longer than needed. There’s too many musings. It seems I have a light into a personal diary of somebody who has too much time on their hands and likes to experiment with their vocabulary and adjectives. I would definitely be skeptical to read another. It is sad to write this review as the first for such an enjoyable experience.
