Nick Hunt travels to four "outlandish" European landscapes--places that are out of place--Arctic tundra in Scotland, desert in Spain, primeval forest in Poland, and the steppe in Hungary. The author's gentle but compelling narration evokes an otherworldly and mystical atmosphere perfect for these unique locations visited mostly on foot. Hunt's wry humor and genuine interest in the range of people he meets on his travels are clear--deliberately obtuse border guards, right-wing nationalists, hippies, and fellow travelers. Hunt worries about the disappearing snow in the Cairngorms as the climate changes but is thrilled to glimpse a rare reindeer. He flirts dangerously with heatstroke while entering the desert during a historic heat wave--is the lunatic he meets real or a figment of his heat-addled brain?
