Exploring Great Britain's cultural and geographic diversity, this series pairs fiction and nonfiction accounts by both new and established writers. Each volume offers a chance to get beyond the tourist destinations, as contemporary British authors reflect on the meaning of home.
Looking in on the U.K.'s largest county, Cathy Rentzenbrink's deeply moving The Yorkshire Years tells of her return to the sleepy town of Snaith, where her brother Matty had an accident over 20 years before. Victoria Hennison's The Island upon the Moor traces a powerful journey from a carefree childhood in the village of Holme-upon-Spalding Moor to surviving a battle with depression.
