‘Fascinating… written with clarity and rooted in deep affection' Observer
‘A timely and balanced book that offers a unique insight into a debate whose relevance is only going to grow’ The Times
A memoir and investigation exploring loss, community and the climate crisis in the Shetland Islands by environmental journalist Marianne Brown.
'Elegant' Sunday Telegraph
'Engrossing' i News
'Moving' The Shetland Times
‘A remarkable and complex book about what makes us human’
George McGavin
When environmental journalist Marianne Brown arrived in Voe, Shetland, to attend the funeral of her father, she discovered a community on the frontline of the climate crisis.
The construction of a huge windfarm, greenlit to export energy to mainland Scotland, had created rifts – with one side supporting the environmental benefits, and the other opposing the impact on local wildlife.
The Shetland Way is an extraordinary investigation into this story – of sustainability, grief, and a debate that mirrors global concerns about how we save the planet.

Raised in Edinburgh, Marianne Brown spent many years working as a journalist in Southeast Asia and later in Britain as the editor of an environmental magazine. She now works for a community-owned renewable energy cooperative based in Bristol. She lives in Devon and can often be found running on the moor or gardening with her partner and young daughter.
