‘They’d allowed me to enter realms of darkness, guiding me through and showing me beauty where my fears once lay.’ - @monisharajesh.bsky.social on the gift of night trains, in her new and lovely book, Moonlight Express. #travelwriting

For Freewheeling, a collection of essays published by @dauntbookspub.bsky.social I wrote about
an unlikely blind date on two wheel, one that unfolded over 400 km and 10 days, + cycling as a kid in Montreal. Some marvellous contributors including the late, legendary Dervla Murphy. Out now!

The most beautiful book cover on my shelf, me thinks. Picasso’s Guernica, no less. (Was reminded of it in a piece about Pierce Brosnan in the FT. He spoke of his work as an artist and and how he adored the Dali cover on Sartre’s Nausea.)

Went to back to Glastonbury on the weekend and climbed the Tor. Last time I was there was six years ago to research my book Wanderland! It felt good to be back.

I read Airplane Mode by Shahnaz Habib a few months ago (Thank you @septemberbooks.bsky.social ) I found it compelling, witty, nuanced & devastating on the many ways that colonialism is embedded in the experience of travel. I think it is a must-read. #books #travelwriting #creativenonfiction
