Walking Home: Travels with a Troubadour on … Walking Home: Travels with a Troubadour on the Pennine Way is a 2012 non-fiction book by the Yorkshire poet Simon Armitage. It chronicles his attempt to walk the long-distance trail the opposite way to that usually taken, from north to south. Along the way, he takes no money, stays with strangers, and gives poetry readings to pay his expenses. The book is illustrated with Armitage's photographs taken along the route. Two of his poems are included in the chapters about the places the poems describe. The book was warmly received by critics in British newspapers. They note that it fits into the tradition of slightly eccentric mid-life journeys, as well as of the productive effect of walking on poetry. They enjoyed the humorous accounts of British interiors and of hazards including weird fogs, bulls, blisters, clagging mud, and a university friend who pops up and cadges free board and lodging.pops up and cadges free board and lodging.

Not like those climbers on Malham Cove —
dipping backwards for their bags of powder,
reaching upwards for the next hairline fracture,
hauling themselves from my binoculars.

Judging by the way the question of sleeping arrangements is tentatively broached I sense there has been a little bit of behind-the-scenes discussion as to the exact nature of our relationship, not helped by Slug's mischievous references to his many friends in Brighton and his appearance at the dinner table in a pink floral shirt, and eventually I intervene by saying that single rooms would be much appreciated and I get first use of any shared bathroom and toilet facility.f any shared bathroom and toilet facility.
