Best Selling Books by Cameron Stewart

Rediscovered after 80 years gathering dust on a family bookshelf and first brought to public attention on BBC Radio 4’s Today Programme, A VERY UNIMPORTANT OFFICER is a detailed and intimate account of the experience of Captain Stewart, an ordinary officer in the front line in France and Flanders throughout 1916 and 1917. Recruited to The Cameronians (Scottish Rifles) in 1915 at the age of 33, Captain Stewart went ''over the top'' many times, outliving ''so many better men'', as he says with typical humility. Through his vivid testimony we learn of the mud (''more like thick slime''), the flies and the difficulties of suffering dysentry while on horseback. In one memorable passage he describes engaging the enemy while smoking a pipe - an episode for which he was awarded the Military Cross. Yet through the chaos and horror of the trenches, Captain Stewart reflects with compassion on the fears and immense courage of the men under his command. Newly edited by his grandson, Cameron Stewart, A VERY UNIMPORTANT OFFICER gives us a fascinating insight into the horrors and absurdities of trench life.

Da tre anni Ingvar è un uomo senza più una casa né una meta. Cammina giorno dopo giorno attraverso l’Australia più selvaggia, evitando le strade battute e il contatto umano, nutrendosi solo di ciò che la terra gli concede e annotando pensieri su un taccuino sgualcito. Cammina senza fermarsi, se non per qualche ora, come chi sa che ogni sosta aprirebbe la porta al fiume dei ricordi. Un giorno arriva in una remota valle tropicale, un luogo sospeso nel silenzio di un paesaggio indomabile. Qui incontra Hilda, anziana burbera ma dal cuore generoso, che gli offre rifugio in un vecchio capanno sulla sua proprietà. Così, nel linguaggio discreto delle piccole cose, prende forma un legame inatteso: due solitudini che si sfiorano appena, ma abbastanza da riconoscere nell’altro un’eco della propria ferita. Intriso di una malinconia struggente, e immerso nel mistero e nell’abbraccio di una natura maestosa, Perché i cavalli corrono? ci accompagna in un’intima discesa nell’animo umano, dove il paesaggio e gli incontri si fanno riparo, metamorfosi e, talvolta, promessa di redenzione.

"He walked not feeling he was connected to the earth, but on the edge of something he couldn''t reach. He pushed on through mist and darkness and clutched the blanket tight under his neck with his bony fist. Nothing in the darkness could scare him. He was darkness itself."

In all weather and across all kinds of terrain, Ingvar walks until he can go no further, then gets up and does it again the following day, week after week, month after month.

There a recently widowed woman, Hilda, allows Ingvar to live in a shed on her property. He hasn''t spoken for three years and Hilda chats frequently with her dead husband but somehow they tolerate each other as they both struggle with the haunting impact of their pasts and grief that won''t let them go.
