Περιγραφή για The Art of Travel Alain de Botton Penguin Books Ltd

THE SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLER\'Honest, funny and dripping with witty aphorisms. Extremely entertaining and enlightening [...] all the way to journey\'s end\' Herald One of our greatest voices in modern philosophy, author of The Course of Love, The Consolations of Philosophy, Religion for Atheists and The School of Life, presents a travel guide with a difference - an exploration of why we travel, and what we learn along the way...Few activities seem to promise as much happiness as going travelling: taking off for somewhere else, somewhere far from home, a place with more interesting weather, customs and landscapes. But although we are inundated with advice on where to travel to, we seldom ask why we go and how we might become more fulfilled by doing so.With the help of a selection of writers, artists and thinkers - including Flaubert, Edward Hopper, Wordsworth and Van Gogh - Alain de Botton provides invaluable insights into everything from holiday romance to hotel minibars, airports to sightseeing. The perfect antidote to those guides that tell us what to do when we get there, The Art of Travel tries to explain why we really went in the first place - and helpfully suggest how we might be happier on our journeys.\'Delightful, profound, entertaining. I doubt if de Botton has written a dull sentence in his life\' Jan Morris\'An elegant and subtle work, unlike any other. Beguiling\' Colin Thubron, The Times Σελίδες: 272, Διαστάσεις: 13x13cm
