The Flow Country, with Linda Cracknell

  • Summary

  • Host Ian Grosz talks with author Linda Cracknell about Scotland’s Flow Country, her book Doubling Back, and how important walking is to her writing practice.

    Linda reads an extract from the new edition of Doubling Back, published by Saraband in May 2024, highlighting how important the peatbogs of Caithness are in alleviating the impacts of climate change, and how vulnerable they have been to commercial forestry practices and land misuse. She describes her time spent in the Flow Country in writing the new chapter of her book, her life-long relationship with walking, and the importance of landscape and place to her work.
