Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Walking by Erling Kagge, read by
Atli Gunnarsson.

'Everything moves more slowly when I walk, the world seems softer . . .'

From the bestselling author of Silence comes an illuminating exploration of the joy of walking. From those perilous first steps to great expeditions, from walking to work to walking to the North Pole, Erling Kagge explains that he who walks lives longer, and better.

'After having put my shoes on and let my thoughts wander, I am sure of one thing - to put one foot in front of the other is one of the most important things we do.'

A thought-proving and enjoyable book that revels in seeing the global in the local. Erling Kagge reveals new ways to view home and homo sapiens, and, as he travels leisurely, we grow slowly wiser.

Tristan Gooley, author of 'The Walker's Guide to Outdoor Clues and Signs'
