Regardless of that, it left me *virtually* fancying an epic stroll throughout the nation myself as a result of Nicholls writes it so superbly. It is a character pushed ode to the windswept and gorgeous landscapes to be discovered exterior our personal enclosed worlds, a narrative of second possibilities and likelihood encounters. I believed it was very good.
