An artist reeling from her husband's unexpected death and an engineer recovering from his divorce follow the Camino de Santiago pilgrim trail from France to Spain, tackling challenges and their own difficulties along the way. - HARPERCOLL
A story of mid-life and second chances from Graeme Simsion, author of The Rosie Project, and his wife Anne Buist
Soon to be a film produced by Ellen DeGeneres
Two misfits walk 2,000 kilometres along the Camino de Santiago to find themselves and, perhaps, each other along the way.
Zoe, a sometime artist, is from California. Martin, an engineer, is from Yorkshire. Both have ended up in picturesque Cluny, in central France. Both are struggling to come to terms with their recent pastâfor Zoe, the death of her husband; for Martin, a messy divorce. Looking to make a new start, each sets out alone to walk two thousand kilometres from Cluny to Santiago, in northwestern Spain, in the footsteps of pilgrims who have walked the Caminoâthe Wayâfor centuries. The Camino changes you, itâs said. Itâs a chance to find a new version of yourself. But can these two very different people find each other? In this smart, funny and romantic journey, Martinâs and Zoeâs stories are told in alternating chapters by husband-and-wife team Graeme Simsion and Anne Buist.
Two Steps Forward is a novel about renewalâphysical, psychological and spiritual. Itâs about the challenge of walking a long distance and of working out where you are going. And itâs about what you decide to keep, what you choose to leave behind and what you rediscover.
