    I'd like to create a "Books that are either about or include a lot of walking" Reading list.

    I've included a small list to start:

    -The Hobbit & The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R tolkien

    -A walk in the woods by Bill Bryson

    -Underland by Robert MacFarlane

    -The Old Ways: Robert MacFarlane

    -The sleeping Giant by Kazuo Ishiguro

    -All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Maria Remarque

    -A Psalm for the wild built by Becky Chambers

    -Two Old Women by Velma Wallis

    I think that walking can be utilized in a lot of extremely creative ways in writing, whether for instilling a sense of introspection, for creating unseen horror, for isolating the reader or even as a means of grounding the reader in the world around them.

    Is love to hear about some more examples of books with a lot of walking 🙂

      This looks like maybe you’re looking for fiction but these two would definitely fit your walking category.
