Tim Hannigan
Shortlisted for the Edward Stanford Travel Book of the Year Award 2024
Tim Hannigan undertakes an epic east–west journey on foot through his own homeland, from the woodlands of the Tamar Valley to the remote western region of Penwith. As he walks, he explores how the Cornwall of the popular imagination has been constructed by writers, artists and others, and how myths, projections and tropes intersect with the real Cornwall – its landscapes, histories, communities and sense of self.
A richly informative tour of one of the most popular regions of Britain, The Granite Kingdom can be read as an evocative travelogue, a celebration of Cornwall’s landscapes, a fascinating account of its history and cultural significance, and an unflinching exploration of uneasy questions about regional identity.©2023 Tim Hannigan (P)2024 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

批評家のレビュー
This deep dive into Cornwall's history, landscape and identity should be stacked on service-station counters all along the A303 this summer.
A magnificent work of travel and historical deconstruction – deeply personal, meticulously researched and hugely enjoyable.
Tim Hannigan writes with an authentic Cornish voice and a true internationalist’s breadth of understanding.
Anyone – tourist or resident – who has been seduced by the beauty and strangeness of Cornwall will find Tim Hannigan a congenial guide and companion.
Beautifully researched and written with care.
Hannigan roams the country on foot, stitching together not only its geography but its histories and communities, while disentangling fact from myth, folk from folklore'
Absorbing and insightful... skilfully interweaves geography, geology, travel memoir and history with an overview of the ways in which Cornwall has been portrayed in art and literature. There’s a lot to explore.
The best kind of traveller, Hannigan is brimful of boundless curiosity... a beguiling book that throbs with passion, Hannigan has captured a portrait of a hidden and often mysterious Cornwall, conveying it with style, ternderness and passion
PRAISE FOR TIM HANNIGAN:
'An excellent and thought-provoking book... What could have been a scholarly theoretical discourse is thoroughly enlivened by Tim Hannigan's decision to turn it into a travel odyssey' TLS.
'Travel writing used to be dominated by Old Etonians with colonialist tendencies; but [Tim Hannigan's] well-researched critique shows that the "travellees" are writing back' Guardian.
'A highly readable and entertaining narrative' Lonely Planet.
'A deft piece of genre-hopping' Telegraph.
'A timely look at the genre – why we travel, and why and how we write about it'
