Description

The beautiful prose of Colin Thubron unfolds along the Silk Road, revealing a rich and multi-dimensional past in its most ambitious route. On buses, donkeys, trains, jeeps, and camels, Thubron traces the flows of the first great trade route from the heart of China to the mountains of Central Asia, crossing north of Afghanistan and the plains of Iran, all the way to Kurdish Turkey. A majestic narration of an ancient world in modern turmoil, Thubron covers over 7,000 miles in eight months, enduring an almost accident with a drunk driver, imprisonment in a Chinese cell, and undergoing root therapy without anesthesia during his journey.
