Andrew and Susie are planning a weekend getaway with their mother to the British coast. We follow them through provincial landscapes: deserted petrol stations, windswept cliffs, dilapidated museums and crowded souvenir shops. In this atmospheric and contemplative book, John McNaught reflects on the rhythms of nature, the passage of time, growing up, and the beauty and boredom of summer holidays.
