“I never imagined that the wind would blow me here, to a kind of isolation I have never experienced… There is never anything out here but my shadow, that no one treads on any more.” Fitton’s acclaimed memoir takes the form of a raw, unflinching journey into the cliffs and forests of Devon, where the collapsing cliffs mirror her own internal landscape. Rejecting the modern world’s suffocating demands, Fitton discovers solace in radical solitude and the fierce beauty of the living world around her. This is the vivid story of one woman’s exploration of what it means to reject the self you know in order to lean who you might yet become.
