‘Walk with me. Along luminous chalk paths, rugged terrain and ancient tracks. To remember that you are not alone but part of an infinite web of ways. Intricately and completely interdependent.'

Many of us enjoy walking along a familiar path. Our spirits lift as our mind settles and our soul is restored by the beauty of the natural landscape.

In Path, a solitary figure walks along ancient pathways, between slender trees, across open hills. As the earth offers up support and reassurance, they walk through uncertainty towards an understanding that they – we – are not alone, but part of the fabric of the world.

With evocative photography and illustrations inspired by the pathways across the South Downs, Path is a contemplative journey written in poetic prose that embodies the steady rhythms and joy of walking, and captures our reciprocal relationship with the land.

Now in paperback, Path features a brand new preface written by the author, Louisa Thomsen Brits, that reveals the unexpected journey she undertook just days after the book was first published in 2018 – and how her own words helped her to navigate a different kind of path through diagnosis and treatment towards healing.

About Black & Beech

Values at our core

Black & Beech was created by me, Stacey Grant-Canham, as a part-time side hustle whilst on maternity leave with my first son. Since then, Black & Beech has evolved into a brand with a mission: to fuse a passion for feminism and activism with a commitment to provocative, ethical, and sustainable fashion. Fashion is a powerful form of expression and an effective tool for empowerment.

We have used our brand to promote activism in areas such as abortion rights and support for survivors of domestic violence. We have given over £20,000 in donations to charities that we endorse.
