Upptäckte i dag att filmen "Saltstigen" kommer på bio i maj och blev lite glad. Trodde att den bara gick på filmkanaler som jag inte har tillgång till..

The Salt Path thing has proved that you can lie in a book or several books, be not a nice person - a criminal and a liar, and it has absolutely no effect.

If that doesn't say everything about these times, I don't know what does.

(I ranted about this a lot on my old FB

The short story is I used to walk long distance coastal paths, and I got a lot of middle class folks asking me if I'd read the Salt Path.

I took one look at the Amazon listing and smelled a rat, the comments and the description said 'fake'.

Many years later it turned out that all of it, or a lot of it was maybe fiction, and she lied about why she lost the house - it's cos she embezzled money from a business - and that they had another property).

As a memoirist with multiple chronic illnesses, I am watching this #SaltPath furore with horror & a certain vindication. This post By Long Covid Advocacy must be read. "...the path of inspiration or the path of the malingerer, no one with illness wins with this story."

Author Raynor Winn's 2018 book, "The Salt Path," was a huge hit. It was an autobiographical tale of how she and husband Moth lost their home, Moth was diagnosed with a degenerative condition, and the pair walked the 630-mile South West Coast Path in the U.K. The book sold over a million copies and spawned two sequels and a movie starring Gillian Anderson and Jason Isaacs. But over the weekend, reporting by the U.K. Observer called the story into question, casting doubt over the circumstances in which they lost their home, and Moth's illness. @BBCNews has the latest on the tangled tale.
