Recensione:
Thubron has a novelist s sensitivity and an historian s perception. One could not ask for a more rewarding travel companion through a little-known land. (Washington Post Book World)
Unconquerably curious and superbly literate...[Thubron] tells us tales of his experiences as a stranger in yet another strange land in lush prose that often soars into poetry. (Los Angeles Times)
Reading Thubron is the next best thing to being there.... His description is as rich with color and detail as the ochre, carnelian and peacock carpets in the mosques. He makes history burn with life. (Newsday)

Colin Thubron is an acknowledged master of travel writing. His first books were about the Middle East-Damascus, Lebanon and Cyprus. In 1982 he traveled in the Soviet Union, pursued by the KGB. From these early experiences developed his great travel books on the land mass that makes up Russia and Asia: Among the Russians, Behind the Wall, The Lost Heart of Asia, In Siberia and Shadow of the Silk Road.
An award-winning novelist as well as, arguably, the most admired travel writer of our time, Thubron lives in London.
