This is the case for Emily Dickinson and her poetry, as well as two very different texts, ‘Walking Naked’ by Alyssa Brugman and the play ‘Stolen’ by Jane Harrison.

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain, The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost and an extract of the second chapter of The Happiest Refugee by Anh Do are three extremely different examples of the physical and inner-journeys.
