Product Description

The Tao Of Travel: Enlightenments from Lives on the Road

â‚¬Å“A book to be plundered and raided.â‚¬Â â‚¬" New York Times Book Review

â‚¬Å“A portal into a world of timeless travel literature curated by one of the greatest travel writers of our day.â‚¬Â â‚¬" USA Today

Paul Theroux celebrates fifty years of wandering the globe in this collection of the best writing from the books that have shaped him as a reader and a traveler. Part philosophical guide, part miscellany, part reminiscence, The Tao of Travel contains excerpts from the best of Therouxâ‚¬s own work interspersed with selections from travelers both familiar and unexpected:

Vladimir NabokovÂ Â Â Â Â Eudora Welty
Evelyn Waugh Â Â Â Â Â James Baldwin
Charles DickensÂ Â Â Â Â Â Pico Iyer
Henry David ThoreauÂ Â Â Â Â Anton Chekhov
Mark TwainÂ Â Â Â Â John McPhee
Freya StarkÂ Â Â Â Â Ernest Hemingway
Graham GreeneÂ Â Â Â Â and many others
â‚¬Å“Dazzling . . . Like someone panning for gold, Theroux reread hundreds of travel classics and modern works, shaking out the nuggets.â‚¬Â â‚¬" San Francisco Chronicle
