GHOSTWAYS, Two Journeys in Unquiet Places, by Robert MacFarlane, Stanley Donwood, and Dan Richards, is a hauntingly beautiful diptych of works inspired by Robert Macfarlanes travels with celebrated collaborators to two eerie corners of England.
In Holloway, a perfect miniature prose-poem (William Dalrymple), Macfarlane, artist Stanley Donwood, and writer Dan Richards travel to Dorset, near the south coast of England, to explore a famed hollowed way--a path used by walkers and riders for so many centuries that it has become worn far down into the soft golden bedrock of the region.
In Ness, a triumphant libretto of mythic modernism for our poisoned age (Max Porter), Macfarlane and Donwood create a modern myth about Orford Ness, the ten-mile-long shingle spit that lies off the coast of East Anglia, which the British government used for decades to conduct secret weapons tests.
