About this listen

Marnie is stuck.

Stuck working alone in her London flat, stuck battling the long afternoons and a life that increasingly feels like it's passing her by.

Michael is coming undone.

Reeling from his wife's departure, increasingly reclusive, taking himself on long, solitary walks across the moors and fells.

When a persistent mutual friend and some very English weather conspire to bring them together, Marnie and Michael suddenly find themselves alone on the most epic of walks and on the precipice of a new friendship.

But can it survive the journey?

A new love story by beloved bestseller David Nicholls, You Are Here is a novel of first encounters, second chances, and finding the way home.

Editorial Review

When the journey is the destination
In classic David Nicholls style, his new sure-to-be-bestseller deftly builds rich character and connection through conversation, an approach that's absolutely perfect for audio. Performed in alternating-ish chapters by the amazing Lydia Leonard and Lee Ingleby, You Are Here provides the listener a real fly-on-the-wall effect (or perhaps in this case, fly-on-the-rucksack). What differentiates this one from some of Nicholls's other hits, and especially One Day, is the vivid, reeling moment of midlife loneliness that the two protagonists, Marnie and Michael, find themselves mired in – a state remarkably relatable to anyone of a certain age, even the most touched out, partnered parent. Organized by geography, the stretch of land ahead paves the way for the mental meanderings that come with walking. You come to know – and care for – these characters deeply, and I daresay you'll be as sorry as I was when these two finally reach their destination. —Emily C., Audible Editor

Loved it - true David Nichols comedy, tragedy, and everything in between. Found the infertility issue sensitively written and of course the description of the countryside compelling.

The only bad thing about this book is that it ended too soon. Loved the characters the landscape and the story. The author has such a talent in understanding human flaws and emotions.

David Nicholls’ absolute mastery with dialogue together with exceptional narration made this the best book in years. Honestly couldn’t wait to get back to listening and felt in such safe hands, no worry about ending up disappointed.

I liked this. It was imperfect but engaging people engaged in a search for happiness, which is I think something to which we can all relate.

Hopeful

Funny but shot through with sadness as well as being relatable without being predictable - I was absorbed from start to finish.
