Penguin presents the audiobook edition of The Salt Path by Raynor Winn, read by Anne Reid. Just days after Raynor learns that Moth, her husband of 32 years is terminally ill, the couple lose their home and their livelihood. With nothing left and little time, they make the brave and impulsive decision to walk the 630 miles of the sea-swept South West Coast Path, from Somerset to Dorset, via Devon and Cornwall. They have almost no money for food or shelter and must carry only the essentials for survival on their backs as they live wild in the ancient, weathered landscape of cliffs, sea and sky. Yet through every step, every encounter, and every test along the way, their walk becomes a remarkable journey.

      Anne Reid narrates Winn's memoir in a thin voice that carries hints of reflection and weariness. It's perfect for the emotions that Winn shares about her hike along the Salt Path of the British coastline with her husband, Moth. Having lost their home and learned of Moth's debilitating illness, their story is often one of frustration. Reid makes listeners feel every blister, pang of hunger, and indignity along the path as the two camp rough for hundreds of miles. She also shares the author's concerns about Britain's homeless. The couple's situation could sound depressing, but Winn tells it with a sense of humor that keeps listeners engaged. A newfound peace and confidence emerge from their journey.
