I have started The Outrun by Amy Liptrot. We recently saw the excellent movie adaptation of this book, so when I stumbled across the “original”, I thought that it would be good to read while the film was still in my mind. Here’s the blurb:
After spending her twenties in London, Amy Liptrot returns to her home in Orkney where she comes to terms with the addiction that has consumed the past decade of her life. On the remote island, Amy spends her mornings swimming in the cold sea, her days observing wildlife, and her nights searching the sky for any signs of the Northern Lights. She soon discovers how the natural world can restore life, heal old wounds and renew hope.
