"The Salt Path" by Raynor Winn became a bestseller after the couple undertook a transformative walk following personal tragedies. Its success paralleled other works in nature memoirs, such as "Wild" by Cheryl Strayed and "H Is for Hawk" by Helen Macdonald. These books, featuring journeys through nature as metaphorical healing processes, have resonated well with readers. Additional entries like "The Outrun" and "Raising Hare" also highlight nature’s therapeutic benefits alongside personal struggles and journeys of rediscovery, suggesting a strong market exists for this genre.
"In 2012, Wild by Cheryl Strayed described the 26-year-old's hike across the west coast of America in the wake of her mother's death and the end of her marriage, and after soaring up the book charts it was made into a film starring Reese Witherspoon two years later."},{
"There is clearly a thriving market for this particular blend of nature writing, personal memoir and a specific form of self-help in which the embattled individual finds solace, sustenance and healing through nature."}],
