A Night in the Snow: Weird Walk x Faber – Introduced by Stewart Lee

The protruding rocks invariably appeared of a strange orange yellow. Every Sunday, the Reverend Edmund Donald Carr climbed the treacherous Long Mynd, walking between village churches in the Shropshire Hills. One winter, while attempting the route in a blizzard, he became lost for twenty-two hours, snow-blinded and given up for dead. He eventually emerged in the Carding Mill Valley, having crossed the wildest terrain and facing a fantastical ‘struggle for life’. This is the unforgettable account of his experience.
