β¦ Synopsis
'That [Simsion's] books are as funny and charming and often touching as they are is a tribute to the skill with which they're written.' NPR
Zoe, a sometime artist, is from California. Martin, an engineer, is from Yorkshire. Both have ended up in picturesque Cluny, in central France. Both are struggling to come to terms with their recent pastβfor Zoe, the death of her husband; for Martin, a messy divorce.
Looking to make a new start, each sets out alone to walk two thousand kilometres from Cluny to Santiago, in northwestern Spain, in the footsteps of pilgrims who have walked the Caminoβthe Wayβfor centuries. The Camino changes you, it's said. It's a chance to find a new version of yourself.
But can these two very different people find each other?
In this smart, funny and romantic journey, Martin's and Zoe's stories are told in alternating chapters by husband-and-wife team Graeme Simsion and Anne Buist.
