Zeigt Titel in Reiseliteratur & Erläuterungen

After nearly two decades in Britain, Bill Bryson, the acclaimed author of such best sellers as The Mother Tongue and Made in America, decided it was time to move back to the United States for a while. This was partly to let his wife and kids experience life in Bryson's homeland, and partly because he had read that 3.7 million Americans believed that they had been abducted by aliens at one time or another. It was thus clear to him that his people needed him.

Oma Toppelreiter hat vieles in ihrem Leben noch spät radikal verändert. Zum Positiven, wie sie immer wieder berichtet. Mit 87 trat sie die erste Flugreise in ihrem Leben an (Destination Malta), bereiste weiters Irland, Frankreich und Italien, entdeckte die Schönheit Spaniens, vor allem auch die einzigartige Stimmung des Pilgerns. Der "Erstkontakt" mit Santiago de Compostela, Finisterre und überhaupt dem Camino de Santiago erfolgte 2009.

Hardly anyone ever leaves Des Moines, Iowa. But Bill Bryson did, and after 10 years in England he decided to go home, to a foreign country. In an ageing Chevrolet Chevette, he drove nearly 14,000 miles through 38 states to compile this hilarious and perceptive state-of-the-nation report on small-town America.

Australia has more things that can kill you than anywhere else. Nevertheless, Bill Bryson journeyed to the country and promptly fell in love with it. The people are cheerful, their cities are clean, the beer is cold, and the sun nearly always shines.

Keine Region der Erde hat Bestsellerautor Per J. Andersson so intensiv bereist wie Indien. In seinem neuen Audiobuch nutzt er seine jahrzehntelangen Erfahrungen, um uns Hörer in dieses zwischen Tradition, Spiritualität und Moderne schillernde Land zu entführen. Ein glänzend bereicherndes Buch für alle, die nach Indien reisen wollen oder bloß davon träumen. Indien ist ein Ansturm auf alle Sinne. Farbenfrohe Götterstatuen aus Pappmaché und Stroh, der Duft von Räucherstäbchen, Holzfeuern und Currypfannen.

Ode an die Schönheit des langsamen Reisens. Sein Großvater war Weichensteller, sein Onkel Fahrdienstleiter und sein Cousin Lokführer. Klar, dass Jaroslav Rudiš so oft wie möglich Zug fährt. In seinem Buch begibt er sich im Takt der Schienen durch Europa: von Berlin aus bis zum Gotthardtunnel und von Sizilien bis nach Lappland; im Nachtzug durch Polen und die Ukraine sowie im Speisewagen von Hamburg nach Prag. Leidenschaftlich berichtet er davon, wie er vor seinem Waggonfenster zwischen Felsen und Bäumen zum ersten Mal die Adria erblickt. Wie er mit der Schmalspurbahn die Wälder im Harz erkundet.

Weil weniger so viel mehr bedeuten kann: Minimalistisch leben im Wohnmobil. Mein Haus, mein Auto, mein Boot - wer hat, der kann, und wer nichts hat, zieht in den Caravan? Das mag früher so gewesen sein, und noch immer ist das Leben in einem Wohnwagen eher ungewöhnlich und verhältnismäßig günstig. Doch die Idee von Marion Hahnfeldt ist eine andere. Nämlich herauszufinden, was man im Leben wirklich braucht. Kommt man noch klar ohne den üblichen Komfort? Reichen sieben Quadratmeter, wenn es früher mal 95 waren?

Geography and Plays is a 1922 collection of Gertrude Stein's "word portraits," or stream-of-consciousness writings. These stream-of-consciousness experiments, rhythmical essays or "portraits", were designed to evoke "the excitingness of pure being" and can be seen as literature's answer to Cubism, plasticity, and collage. Although the book has been described as "a marvellous and painstaking achievement in setting down approximately 80,000 words which mean nothing at all," it is considered to be one of Stein's seminal works.

At the request of Mr. Siddons, Manager and Patentee of the Theatre Royal, Edinburgh, the following Performance was composed. I am very sensible that Mr. Scott’s Poem of “The Lady of the Lake” afforded material for a much superior Drama than the one here presented to the public; but as Mr. Siddons, in all his correspondence with me on the subject, urged expedition, I was more attentive to the interest of a Friend than to the fame of an Author; and the whole piece was arranged, written, and copied in the short space of ten days. I can claim little merit beyond that of a compiler. Some few ...
