Tim Hannigan - The Pathless Land

Tim Hannigan is one of those writers whose work tends to make you want to buy a map and a plane ticket — his previous books have taken readers deep into the landscapes, histories, and human stories of some of the world's less-trodden places, and The Pathless Land continues in that tradition. An evening with him in conversation at The Edge Of The World Bookshop promises exactly the kind of absorbing literary event that leaves you thinking for days afterwards. The Edge Of The World is a Penzance institution — an independent bookshop at the far end of the country that's become a beloved gathering place for readers of the thoughtful, curious variety. Tickets are £7.21 and well worth every penny. Book early; this kind of event fills up.
