Product Information
Pico Iyer - one of our most compelling and profoundly provocative travel writers - invites us to accompany him on an array of exotic explorations, from L.A. and Yemen to Haiti and Ethiopia, from a Bolivian prison to a hidden monastery in Tibet. He goes to Cambodia, where the main tourist attraction is a collection of skulls from the Khmer Rouge killing fields, and travels through southern Arabia in the weeks before September 11, 2001. He practices meditation with Leonard Cohen and discusses geopolitics with the Dalai Lama, travels to Easter Island and through the imaginative terrains of W. G. Sebald and Kazuo Ishiguro, weaving physical and psychological challenges together into a seamless narrative. Throughout his travels, the familiar thrill of adventure is haunted by the unsettling questions that arise for Iyer everywhere he goes: How do we reconcile suffering with the sunlight often found around it? How does the foreign instruct the traveler, precisely by discomfiting him? And how does travel take us more deeply into reality, both within us and without? Intensely affecting, Iyer's explorations are a road map of thinking in new ways about our changing world.

Reviews
"As a guide to far-flung places, Pico Iyer can hardly be surpassed." The New Yorker "If Iyer is only a travel writer, then so was Henry James." Los Angeles Times "Iyer brings . . . startling freshness to his accounts of travel. . . . Ranks as one of Iyer's best books." The Seattle Times "Pico Iyer's remarkable talent is enough justification for going anywhere in the world he fancies." Washington Post Book World "Brilliant . . . [Iyer] reflects back at us images from a post-colonial world that is gorgeously complex and stubbornly elusive, yet firmly within his grasp." New York Times "Pico Iyer is among the finest travel writers of his generation." Time "Iyer travels to places that many of us have never been to, and may never go to. . . . Iyer writes beautifully, and I was happy to follow wherever his wanderings (physical and spiritual) led." San Francisco Chronicle "Pico Iyer is a writer like no other, sui generis, and in this book his particular gifts of thoughtfulness, perception and descriptive power, allied by now with profound experience, reach new levels of grace." Jan Morris "Jan Morris has retired; Graham Greene is dead. Pico Iyer is on his way to replacing them... Leave your guidebook behind. Go follow Iyer." National Geographic Adventure "Iyer is an exceptional travel writer, who not only limns Peruvian street maps with clarity and wit, but also offers a compelling rationale for immersing yourself in a foreign environment." Gotham "Iyer is a master of the ironic detail, and in these pieces he is able to notice the very objects whose juxtaposition will nail shut the lid of his beautifully constructed metaphorical box. . . . Goes where most of us will not go and returns with the dire details." Kirkus Reviews "Hallucinatory and observant, this little book confirms Iyer as one of the most gifted wanderers writing today." Seattle Weekly "Mr. Iyer writes with remarkable grace. . . . He is not only wonderful company but will take you on journeysof place, heart and spirityou perhaps had not dared imagine." Santa Barbara News-Press "The world's best travel writer." The Oregonian, "As a guide to far-flung places, Pico Iyer can hardly be surpassed."
