The Picador Book of Journeys

Journeys is a provocatively different and shamelessly idiosyncratic travel anthology. In its pages we encounter an astonishing assortment of peopleat leisure, at war, in grand luxury and great discomfort, running away and coming home. Hugely entertaining and wide-ranging, this is an invitation to visit not just the predictable destinations in the travel genre, but to explore the backroads of its varied terrain. Journeys hops over the self-imposed borders of travel writing to reveal our inner and outer worlds in a multitude of captivating voices.
