From the master of literary reportage whose acclaimed books include Shah of Shahs, The Emperor, and The Shadow of the Sun, an intimate account of his first youthful forays beyond the Iron Curtain.

Just out of university in 1955, Kapuscinski told his editor that he’d like to go abroad. Dreaming no farther than Czechoslovakia, the young reporter found himself sent to India. Wide-eyed and captivated, he would discover in those days his life’s work—to understand and describe the world in its remotest reaches, in all its multiplicity. From the rituals of sunrise at Persepolis to the incongruity of Louis Armstrong performing before a stone-faced crowd in Khartoum, Kapuscinski gives us the non-Western world as he first saw it, through still-virginal Western eyes.

The companion on his travels: a volume of Herodotus, a gift from his first boss. Whether in China, Poland, Iran, or the Congo, it was the “father of history”—and, as Kapuscinski would realize, of globalism—who helped the young correspondent to make sense of events, to find the story where it did not obviously exist. It is this great forerunner’s spirit—both supremely worldly and innately Occidental—that would continue to whet Kapuscinski’s ravenous appetite for discovering the broader world and that has made him our own indispensable companion on any leg of that perpetual journey.</p>

带一本书去旅行,就是带了一个无声的伙伴。特别的是这本书和你在进行的旅行有某种程度的关联。类似的感觉可以参照电影《改编剧本》。

除了翻译的问题之外,作者的“两条线”并未很好的融合连贯起来,所谓“时间上的旅行”大部分都是在复述希罗多德《历史》的情节,自己独特的分析和思考并不多见,有见地的观点更少;“空间上的旅行”着墨不少,但也基本上局限于对当地市井生活场景的基本描写,也缺乏深入的探索...

尽管印度语和中文的书写方式对我来说都同样难,可是这两个国家人民的行为方式却明显不同。印度人显得很放松,中国人表现得很拘谨,警觉心很强。印度人即使在拥挤不堪时也不会成群结队,他们的人群显得很松散,杂乱无章,缓缓地流动着;而在中国,人多拥挤时,人群也是成形的,显...

基本可以不必读。地缘偏见不少。对地中海周边地理明显了解不多,人太懒,不爱读书。对长城的看法无知可笑-错的都那么俗套。最精彩的段落都是钞书Herodotus-那还不如去读原书。
