"A touching exploration of turning grief into action." – Kirkus Reviews After losing his wife Melitta to cervical cancer, Laurence Carter embarked on a 4,314-mile coastal walk around England and Wales. His mission: to raise awareness that cervical cancer can be eliminated in a generation. This inspiring memoir recounts how his journey transformed from one of grief to one of hope and renewed love. Through poignant, funny and heartwarming vignettes, Carter takes readers along as he travels Britain’s beautiful coastline, chronicling both his physical trek and emotional recovery. A moving, frank account of overcoming loss that offers solace to anyone who has experienced bereavement. “Buttressed by purpose, support from friends and strangers, and Cancer Research UK,” he writes, the journey taught him the “salving power of the outdoors” and introduced him to a network of other individuals whose lives had been upended by cervical cancer.” Kirkus Reviews
