  1. 1. Immortelle Randonnée

    A reflective travel memoir recounting a long pilgrimage across the Spanish landscape along the Camino de Santiago, blending vivid descriptions of walking and weather with encounters with fellow pilgrims, local characters and historic sites; over the course of the journey the narrator alternates practical, often humorous details of daily life on the road with meditations on faith, memory, medieval echoes in the modern world and the surprising intimacy of solitude and chance meetings.
