Bookroo's summary

Four individuals recount a simple park walk, each with a unique perspective. As their stories unfold, themes of alienation, friendship, and the bizarre emerge. What truths lie beneath their differing views? Discover the unexpected connections and hidden depths in this intriguing tale.

From the publisher

Four different voices tell their own versions of the same walk in the park. The radically different perspectives give a fascinating depth to this simple story which explores many of the author’s key themes, such as alienation, friendship and the bizarre amid the mundane. Anthony Browne’s world-renowned artwork is full of expressive gorillas, vibrant colours and numerous nods to Magritte and other artists, while being uniquely Browne’s own style.
