What is The Salt Path about?

The Salt Path is a 2018 memoir, nature, and travel book by Raynor Winn . It details the long-distance walk along the South West Coast Path , in South West England , by Winn and her husband, Moth, after they lost their home, and Moth was diagnosed with fatal corticobasal degeneration (CBD). It deals with the theme of homelessness and the nature of home in the face of the unpredictability of life. It was shortlisted for the 2018 Wainwright Prize and the Costa Book Awards , and won the 2019 RSL Christopher Bland Prize . A 2024 film adaptation of the same name has Gillian Anderson and Jason Isaacs in the lead roles. Some background events central to the premise of the book were disputed following an investigative piece in July 2025 by The Observer , which stated that Winn lost her home after stealing £64,000 from her employer, and cast doubt on her husband's diagnosis of CBD.
