"Movement. Place. The reason I read—not for conflict between humans, but for journeys. Oxford for me is still Jude the Obscure; Stonehenge the place where Tess of the D’Urbervilles lay down on an oblong slab to sleep. No travel guide—or actual visit—can evoke Glastonbury as evocatively as John Cowper Powys in A Glastonbury Romance (a novel so wonderful, so utterly beyond in its language, that, after coming across it by fluke, I had to read huge swaths of it aloud). For me, Greece has always been the island of John Fowles’s The Magus, until a year ago, when Tobias Hill’s The Hidden turned my gaze to the Peloponnese."
