Descripción Paperback. Condición: New. A clean crisp well preserved 2014 Tauris Parke Paperbacks softcover in a fine tight binding. Little to no shelf wear. Text is bright and free of marks or underlining. Fast shipping in a secure book box mailer with tracking. With such tantalising chapters as "In Defence of Smuggling" and "Lunch with Homer" this is a witty, eye-opening tapestry of Freya Stark's writings on travel and a life spent as one of the 20th century's most formidable adventuresses. In chronological order, spanning an extraordinary 50 years, from 1919 to 1967, Stark ranges from eloquent musings on the nature of travel, of being a woman - both writer and explorer - in what was then predominantly a male world and jewel-bright stories from across the world - Arabia to North Africa, Iran and India - that captivate the reader with every sentence. There are romantic picnics under starlit skies on remote islands, meaningful moments of quiet in Mecca and Jerusalem and heartfelt accounts of encounters with a kaleidoscope of people. The Zodiac Arch resurrects lost worlds, reveals a little of the woman behind the legend and is, at heart, a magnetic read for all those under the spell of wanderlust. Nº de ref. del artículo: 1757
