Way Makers: An Anthology of Women’s Writing about Walking is the first anthology of women’s writing about walking, and it is edited by Kerri Andrews, the author of the bestselling Wanderers. This beautiful collection takes in poetry, letters, diaries, novels and more, from authors including Mary Wollstonecraft, Dorothy Wordsworth, Jane Austen, Mary Shelley and Virginia Woolf, to Raynor Winn, Cheryl Strayed, Sarah Moss and Polly Atkin. It showcases the rich literary heritage created by generations of women walker-writers over the centuries and demonstrates that walking was, and continues to be, an activity full of physical and emotional significance for women.

Kerri will be in conversation with Kitty Corrigan.
