A Journey Round My Room

Gelesen von Steven Watson

(4,808 Sterne; 13 Bewertungen)

Sentenced to house arrest for forty-two days owing to his participation in a duel, Xavier de Maistre was inspired to write a travel memoir about the greatest journey a man can take. It is a journey which costs nothing, one which is equally well-suited to the "miserly or prodigal, rich or poor, young or old" -- even the idlest man will enjoy this "pleasure jaunt which will cost him neither time nor money." Come then: join Maistre in a journey round his room. - Summary by Steven Watson (2 hr 23 min)

Locked Down

(5 Sterne)

So relevant to the age of Covid. I envy the author his powerful imagination; and his manservant.
