Il diario di viaggio dell'iconico scrittore dalle coste inesplorate dell'Africa occidentale. Lasciando l'Europa per la prima volta nella sua vita, Graham Greene partì nel 1935 per scoprire la Liberia, allora una repubblica praticamente inesplorata sulle coste dell'Africa occidentale. Questo avvincente resoconto del suo arduo viaggio di 350 miglia a piedi, una grande avventura che lo portò dal confine con la Sierra Leone alla costa atlantica di Grand Bassa, è tanto un resoconto dell'auto-scoperta di un giovane uomo quanto una sorprendente intuizione di una delle poche aree dell'Africa non toccate dalla colonizzazione occidentale. Journey Without Maps è considerato un capolavoro di scrittura di viaggio. CON UNA PREFAZIONE DI TIM BUTCHER E UN'INTRODUZIONE DI PAUL THEROUX "Uno dei migliori libri di viaggio di questo secolo" Independent.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. The iconic writer's travel log from the uncharted shores of West Africa. Leaving Europe for the first time in his life, Graham Greene set out in 1935 to discover Liberia, then a virtually unmapped republic on the shores of West Africa. This captivating account of his arduous 350-mile journey on foot - a great adventure which took him from the border with Sierra Leone to the Atlantic coast at Grand Bassa - is as much a record of one young man's self-discovery as it is a striking insight into one of the few areas of Africa untouched by Western colonisation. Journey Without Maps is regarded as a masterclass in travel writing. WITH A FOREWORD BY TIM BUTCHER AND AN INTRODUCTION BY PAUL THEROUX 'One of the best travel books this century' Independent.
