Journeys: Tortoise Quarterly 1

Tortoise Quarterly #1

by Keith Blackmore (Editor), Simon Barnes (Contributor), Keith Bernstein (Photographer)

“Tortoises may be slow moving but we have no fear of any journey, long or short, difficult or easy, pleasurable or painful. And we always get there in the end. This is another journey for us, our first official Short Book of Long Reads. Within these covers you’ll find journeys fantastical and formidable, funny and frightening; journeys of discovery and self-discovery, of love and heartbreak.” (Tortoise Media blurb)

192 pages, Paperback

[Simon Howard · Rating 3 out of 5]

In this edition, I particularly enjoyed Matthew D'Ancona's account of experiencing delirium while he was a patient on a high dependency unit, Ian Ridley's moving story of his wife's death from cancer, and Tanyaradzwa Nyenwa's reflections on working as a cold caller.
