Frontierlands

di Hazel Sheffield (Autore)

Transworld Digital, 2026

Brought to you by Penguin. 'Frontierlands' are Britain's forgotten places, ripe for reinvention. Once economic engines, they are the outposts that investors and the state have forgotten: silt-filled harbours, overgrown forests, sunken railway tracks and empty buildings. They are the symptoms of an ever more centralised country but they are home to local communities, and among these, pioneers, working together to repair and rebuild. Through inspiring storytelling, acclaimed journalist Hazel Sheffield takes readers on a journey that begins at the edges of Britain and travels inward via hoardings and railway arches, factories, streets and neighbourhoods to our homes. Moving from the South West to Gateshead in the North East, from Lancashire to London and the South East, she introduces us to the people who are acting to shape their own futures - people with first-hand knowledge of the problems Britain faces and with clear ideas how to make things better. This is a book of community spirit, regeneration, empowerment and hope. We will question our assumptions about the workings of the world and learn how we can build a different one, ready for the enormous upheaval on the horizon - challenging the frontiers of our own minds. © Hazel Sheffield 2026 (P) Penguin Audio 2026
