Finding meaning in movement can be difficult in today’s frenetic world. This may seem like a modern problem, but putting one foot in front of the other is something that authors have been writing about for centuries. Some like Gaskell, Wordsworth and Whitman extoll the virtues of walking in the countryside, be it on one’s own connecting with nature or as the means to really good conversation with friends. Others like Dickens and E. M. Forster explore the thrill and dangers of moving about the city, by day or by night. In Tu003ciu003ehe Joy of Walkingu003c/iu003e you’ll find a wealth of essays, poetry and fiction celebrating and exploring the joy of walking.u003c/pu003e
