Publisher's Synopsis
Funny, poignant and insightful, this is the tale of one man and his young son's Camino during a long hot Summer three decades ago . Walk with Michael and Kes across Spain, as they make an unconventional spiritual voyage of discovery - one of them on the cusp of middle age, the other of young adulthood - an experience that will shape the rest of their lives. Through hardship, blistered feet and the odd glass of wine, leavened by philosophical observations and ancient lore, we are introduced to a fascinating cast of characters plus the odd señorita, sent by a higher power to test the author's resistance to temptation. Even with the lapse of time, some of the author's recollections of the trip can generate an intense emotional reaction, as if they had happened yesterday. A life-enhancing journey for the author and a memorable experience for this particular reader. Surely one of the very best accounts of the Camino experience, and one which may well persuade you to follow in their footsteps.
