Sinossi

Renowned travel writer Steve Rudd heads East for this collection of his trademark punchy, pithy reports, previously seen in such publications as Time Out and The Guardian, but available in collected, chronologically-ordered form for the first time in Pulse.

Written in transit between October 2010 and February 2011, Pulse finds Rudd on his fifth world-spanning, shoestring adventure, with a 'crisis of the midlife variety' driving him through India, Indonesia, Singapore and Malaysia in a relentless quest for 'truth and beauty'.

At turns philosophical, poetic, action-packed and hair-raising, this is a truly unique look at Asia - an entertaining and eye-opening experience guaranteed to broaden the mind.

L'autore

Steve Rudd was born in East Yorkshire, England, in 1980. He is a music journalist, an experimental musician, an acclaimed poet, and a footloose vagabond. His travel writing has appeared in Time Out, The Guardian and TravelMag, and in 2010 he was a runner-up in the Travellers' Digest Young Writer of The Year Award.

Steve has explored more than seventy countries on his travels, and written enough material to fill five full-length books, much of which has been published online and devoured by a loyal following of more than 4000 readers. Pulse describes his latest journey, and marks the first time these articles have been collected in print.
