Nick Hunt
'A powerful and evocative exploration of disaster and collapse, resilience and renewal' SHAFIK MEGHJI, author of Small Earthquakes
This is not a book about the end of the world - it's about the start of a new one.
Melting glaciers. Crumbling coasts. Vanishing seas. The feeling that our world is coming to an end has led to a rise in 'ecological grief' and prompted a wave of last-chance tourists and environmental mourners. From funeral cairns built for a dying glacier in the Swiss Alps, to selfies taken at the disappearing Aral Sea, pilgrims, both religious and secular, are making journeys to find meaningful ways to say goodbye.
But as one world ends, another begins. In Ways to Say Goodbye, Nick Hunt asks what first chances lie ahead? Travelling across continents, through mountains, forests, deserts, coasts and cities, Nick Hunt captures our landscapes in flux. He explores what it means to live in a world that is undergoing vertiginous change, and offers a way we can keep our balance as the ground shifts beneath our feet.©2027 Nick Hunt (P)2027 Hodder & Stoughton Limited

Opinie krytyków
Nick Hunt shows that the unravelling of our planet and much that we know is not only an occasion for grieving but also an opportunity for wonder, humour and also transformation. A beautiful book that is not only excellent travel writing but also a moving meditation on being human right now (BEN RAWLENCE, author of The Treeline and Think Like a Forest)
Ways to Say Goodbye is a bold and unusual attempt to wrestle with our collective anxiety. Far from depressing, Hunt's refusal to look away from all this loss is something of a balm, and his book has an admirable honesty that left me feeling far less alone. Change is inevitable and mystifying but Hunt is the best of guides, refusing to sugarcoat what he learns, while gently encouraging us to also see the possible beginnings in the endings. A brilliant book (ADAM WEYMOUTH, author of Lone Wolf)
Hunt is the travelling companion you've always wanted: swashbuckling but learned; plangent when the world is dark, but not constitutionally maudlin. And here he's at his best. This is a requiem - solemn but beautiful. And because the universe is strange, hinting always at the possibility of resurrection. (CHARLES FOSTER, author of The Edges of the World)
A powerful and evocative exploration of disaster and collapse, resilience and renewal, spanning expiring glaciers, sinking cities, vanished seas and shifting sand dunes . . . Nick Hunt is a brilliantly original, perceptive and thought-provoking writer (SHAFIK MEGHJI, author of Small Earthquakes)
Here's a paradox: a book that is called Ways to Say Goodbye is also a wonderful celebration of renewal. Nick Hunt is an experienced and compassionate guide on these journeys across shifting terrain and into deep time, from eroding coasts to glacial ice and desert forests. Hunt has composed a vital and tender aubade for the Anthropocene, a gathering of wisdom and ritual to ring in an uncertain future. Ways to Say Goodbye is an essential waybook for a bewildered world. (NANCY CAMPBELL, author of Thunderstone)
One of the few writers to approach climate change with the moral and emotional urgency and curiosity the issue requires (JULIAN SAYARER, author of Fifty Miles Wide and The Cycle Diaries)
Blazing with intelligence, wise to immensities, and - fleet-footed messenger between worlds - Puckish as well as profound (JAY GRIFFITHS, author of How Animals Heal Us)
Nick Hunt explores some of the world's most precious and fragile environments with his trademark deftness, insight and humanity. Though there is melancholy in these pages, it is a captivating and utterly enchanting book (JOANNA POCOCK, author of Greyhound: A Memoir)
