Publisher Description "From Cape Wrath to Finisterre" is a travelogue and an homage to Celtic lands and waters, from their northern to their south western landfalls. Cape Wrath points towards the Arctic Circle at Scotlands furthest northerly limit. Perhaps I was looking for a homeland, perhaps not, or at any rate a place where it would be worth trying to live for a while as well as one can for as long as it lasts. Finisterre, the furthest point in Galicia in northern Spain, was so named for being The End of the Earth. Larssons contemplative musings on life as seen from the cockpit and deck of his yacht enliven this journey from Denmark around Scotland, through the Irish Sea and onwards to Brittany and Spain. Yes, I admit to rootlessness and impermanence, he admits. But restlessness, on the other hand, is a scourge. It and its modern variant, stress, the futility of running round in circles, are to be avoided at all costs. It is far from certain, of course, that this way of life would suit everybody, but if it instils in someone the desire to experiment with alternatives. I shall be happy. Author Biography Larsson is a university lecturer in French.
