'A Journal of Wanderings and Wonderings from the British Isles'
Gorgeously put-together, the 'zine-esque' Weird Walk tells tales of folklore, music and poetry from across the British Isles, across time. What started simply as a group of friends walking, expanded into 'active engagement' with the land and its history — both real and imagined.
Issue eight of this much-loved and well-trodden zine arrives just as daylight savings come into full effect, celebrating the blossoming of spring’s wisteria with a pastel lilac cover. The promise of an extra hour of sunlight is a sure sign to dust off our walking boots and join Lucy Wright in dancing the night away. But, as this issue reminds us, a chance encounter with the uncanny might just be around the next corner.
