Atlas of an Anxious Man
Christoph Ransmayr
This travel diary follows Christoph Ransmayr across the globe: from the shadows of Java’s volcanoes to the rapids of the Mekong and Danube Rivers, from the drift ice of the Arctic Circle to Himalayan passes and on to the disenchanted islands of the South Pacific. Ransmayr begins each of his poetic stories with “I saw …”, telling his readers about continents, eras and landscapes of the soul.
