The Twenty: One Woman’s Trek Across Corsica on the GR20 Trail
Description Great for fans of Suzanne Roberts’sAlmost Somewhere, Juliana Buhring’sThis Road I Ride.Marianne Bohr and her husband, about to turn sixty, are restless for adventure. They decide on an extended, desolate trek across the French island of Corsica—th GR20, Europe’stoughest long-distance footpath—tochallenge what it means to grow old. Part travelogue, part buddy story, part memoir, The Twenty is a journey across a rugged island of stunning beauty little known outside Europe. From a chubby, non-athletic child, Bohr grew into a fit, athletic person with an “I#8217ll show them”attitude. But hiking The Twenty forces her to transform a lifetime of hard-won achievements into acceptance of her body and its limitations. The difficult journey across a remote island provides the crucible for exploring what it means to be an aging woman in a youth-focused culture, a physically fit person whose limitations are getting the best of her, and the partner of a husband who is growing old with her. More than a hiking tale, The Twenty is a moving story infused with humor about hiking, aging, accepting life’sfinite journey, and the intimacy of a long-term marriage—se against the breathtaking beauty of Corsica’srugged countryside.
