The Hungarian Who Walked To Heaven Paperback / softback
by Edward Fox
Paperback / softback
Description
In 1819 Alexander Csoma de Koros, a Hungarian scholar, set off on a 30-year odyssey in search of his own identity, or rather of the origins of the Magyar people.
He ended up in Ladakh, where, through a bizane sequence of events, he found himself decoding the mysteries of Tibetan culture for the British government.
The desire to travel, as Edward Fox so deftly illustrates, can be a terrible burden on the soul.
