Beschreibung
Follow in the footsteps of some of the world’s most famous authors on the journeys which inspired their greatest works in this beautiful illustrated atlas.
Some truly remarkable works of literature have been inspired by writers spending time away from their typical surroundings. From
epic road trips and
arduous treks into remote territories to
cultural tours and
sojourns in the finest hotels, this book explores
35 influential journeys taken by literary greats and reveals the repercussions of those travels on the authors’ personal lives and the broader literary landscape.
Award-winning author Travis Elborough brings each of these trips to life with fascinating insights into the stories behind the creation of some of
the world’s most famous literary creations, including
Dracula,
Moby Dick,
Murder on the Orient Express,
Madame Bovary,
The Talented Mr Ripley and
Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone.
From
Herman Melville’s first whaling voyage in 1841, from New York to Liverpool, to
Jack Kerouac’s on-the-road Odyssey, which is now an iconic drive, discover how these journeys imprinted themselves on some of the greatest literary minds of all time.
Complete with
navigational notes, colour photographs and
commissioned maps, the fresh insights within tell readers something new about the places, work and personalities of some of the world’s greatest minds.
