The Writer Abroad : Literary Travels from Austria to Uzbekistan, Paperback / softback Book

The Writer Abroad : Literary Travels from Austria to Uzbekistan Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

From the grand tour to the global village, novelists and poets have made particularly observant travellers.

Many writers have been prone to wanderlust, eager to explore the world and draw inspiration from their travels.

They recorded their notes in letters, journals, essays and books.

In some cases, these became celebrated examples of travel writing, but there are many more accounts which remain overlooked.

In The Writer Abroad, Lucinda Hawksley takes us on a literary journey around the world, through extracts from Arthur Conan Doyle in Australia, Joseph Conrad in the Congo, Charles Dickens in Italy, Henry James in France, Mary Wollstonecraft in Sweden, and many more.
