Holloway
- a hollow way, a sunken path. A route that centuries of foot-fall, hoof-hit, wheel-roll & rain-run have harrowed deep down into bedrock. In July 2005, Robert Macfarlane & Roger Deakin travelled to explore the holloways of South Dorset's sandstone. They found their way into a landscape of shadows, spectres & great strangeness. Six years later, after Deakin's early death, Macfarlane returned to the holloway with the artist Stanley Donwood & writer Dan Richards. The book is about those journeys & that landscape.
