Summary

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Walking by Erling Kagge, read by
Atli Gunnarsson.

'Everything moves more slowly when I walk, the world seems softer . . .'

From the bestselling author of Silence comes an illuminating exploration of the joy of walking. From those perilous first steps to great expeditions, from walking to work to walking to the North Pole, Erling Kagge explains that he who walks lives longer, and better.

'After having put my shoes on and let my thoughts wander, I am sure of one thing - to put one foot in front of the other is one of the most important things we do.'

Critic reviews

A thought-proving and enjoyable book that revels in seeing the global in the local. Erling Kagge reveals new ways to view home and homo sapiens, and, as he travels leisurely, we grow slowly wiser. (Tristan Gooley, author of 'The Walker's Guide to Outdoor Clues and Signs')
'If you are a walker this book will resonate with you, if you have seldom or never walked this book should be compulsory reading' (Rosamund Young, author of 'The Secret Life of Cows')

Loved it

I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
It's very humble, simple in its message, and that's exactly what I was looking for. It basically tells you why walking is so enjoyable, how it can change your perspective on things, and a few stories of people who walk long distances, included the author. I read it in preparation for the Camino de Santiago, and it did the trick, as it motivated me and inspired me. After reading it, i couldn't wait to go walking my 250km on the Camino :)
