- 'The Salt Path' chronicled the experiences of Raynor Winn and her husband Moth when, both in their 50s, they were evicted from their beloved farm in Wales. Shortly afterwards, Moth was diagnosed with an incurable brain disease. Against all medical advice, the homeless couple set forth into the outdoors, undertaking the 630-mile long South West Coast Path. After the success of that first book, Winn was contacted by Sam, a city trader who had been moved by Raynor’s story and offered her and Moth a free tenancy in a Cornish house and orchard.
In return, they would create a biodiverse farm and revive its wildlife. With the change of life, Moth’s health temporarily stabilises: "surviving by returning to a more natural state of existence," while Raynor’s own worldview continues to be inspired by the environment around her. In this event, Winn talks to Sally Magnusson about her new memoir, 'The Wild Silence', which recounts the couple’s delightful peregrinations and surprising challenges while building a life in their new home.

This book is interesting to read. I wish this family all the best.
The Salt Path is wonderful book that should be read widely. The way Raynor Winn takes the reader on her epic trek. The places and changing weather conditions, the sea a constant presence, the friendly and not-so-friendly people encountered along the way. She deserves all the accolades for she is truly a gifted writer.
The salt path is a amazing book I felt like I was with them along side them walking ♥️
Fabulous book and superb couple/family 💖😊💖
Just read the book over two days, off to buy the Wild Silence now, the book brought back memories of time spent between Minehead, Porlock, Lynton and Lynmouth, Appledore, Bude, St Ives,Falmouth, happy times then, I must go back, do more walking, do the path, now I’m on my own, brilliant book
Inspirational
Amazing book on endurance and pain and suffering. And so much more. From a Farm Gal myself.
Winnie Wallace.. she's a Wonderful storyteller. But that's just what they are , stories. There are too many gap's in her personal life. Touch of make believe surrounds her.

God what an awful self-entitled woman.
How do you work that out 🙄 can you explain
@@unclebulgaria1132 er have you read her books? Truly odious human being.
A predictably jealous troll, yawn
@@tiffcat1100 Yes I'm obvious jealous (of what exactly?) Or you could read my in-depth review of her book to see why I (and many others) think she's a terrible human being.
@@turkeyphant Where is the link to your review?
Disgusting seeing audience members wearing masks. Really sad that people don't think for themselves.
