Chris Ikin Not sure of the page number, but it's in The Living Mountain - Chapter Six: Air and Light. "I had followed it times without number, yet now, when my eyes were in my feet, I did not know its bumps and holes, nor where the trickles of water cross it, nor where it rose."
Grant Hutchison Page 46 of the 2011 Canongate edition, in a passage about walking in the dark.
