A Leicestershire vicar, who describes himself as "not much of a walker", sets out on a five hundred mile pilgrimage in reverse.A pilgrimage doesn't have to end at a distant shrine. Simon's goal is not some unfamiliar holy site but home, the place of belonging.This book describes an unlikely journey from the very heart of the French capital to a suburban parish in the English Midlands. Fifty-two days of solitary walking, punctuated by reunions with old friends and special places, lead Simon through a homeward-bound adventure in faith.Keen observation, thoughts that are allowed to wander as far as his feet, a delight in the ordinariness of unspectacular places and a series of surprising encounters, all fill a travel story that is humorous, reflective and accessible.
