LONGLISTED FOR THE WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR NATURE WRITING 2025BBC RADIO 4 BOOK OF THE WEEK'A dazzlingly inventive work of literature' Robert Macfarlane'A wonderful achievement' Kathleen Jamie, New Statesman'Beautifully written' Observer'A wonderful, epic braiding of history, geography and memoir' James RebanksAt the heart of this book is a highway. The A1; The Great North Road. A 400-mile multiplicity of ancient trackway, Roman road, pilgrim path, coach route and motorway that has run like a backbone through Britain for the last 2,000 years.In this genre-defying and profoundly personal book, Cowen follows this ghost road from beginning to end on a journey through history, place, people and time. Weaving his own histories and memories with the layered landscapes he moves through, this is the story of an age, of coming to terms with time past and time passing, and the roads that lead us to where we find ourselves.Written in kaleidoscopic prose, The North Road is an unforgettable exploration of Britains great highway.'Astonishing. One to relish and revisit'Telegraph'Remarkable'Financial Times'Sweeping, sensitive and enduring'Tristan Gooley'Stunning and utterly unique'Benjamin Myers'A dazzling, dogged, layered account of one roads passage through place, time and an ordinary familys history'Melissa Harrison. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Descrizione dello Store

In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we’re helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.
