Description: Early one autumn afternoon in pursuit of an elusive book on her shelves Susan Hill encountered dozens of others that she had never read or forgotten she owned or wanted to read for a second time. The discovery inspired her to embark on a year - long voyage through her books forsaking new purchases in order to get to know her own collection again. A book which is left on a shelf for a decade is a dead thing but it is also a chrysalis packed with the potential to burst into new life. Wandering through her house that day Hill's eyes were opened to how much of that life was stored in her home neglected for years. Howards End is on the Landing charts the journey of one of the nation's most accomplished authors as she revisits the conversations libraries and bookshelves of the past that have informed a lifetime of reading and writing.
