WAY MAKERS: AN ANTHOLOGY OF WOMENS WRITING ABOUT WALKING (PB

An anthology of extracts from women's writing about walking, as expressed in poetry, letters, diaries, novels and more. Moving from Elizabeth Carter's correspondence with Catherine Talbot in the eighteenth century through to Merryn Glover in the present day, it traces a long tradition of women's walking literature. For the women included in this anthology, walking is a source of creativity and comfort, also sometimes tinged with danger and fear. Sequel to Wanderers, by the same editor.
