Summary
Somewhere between the “professional tourist” and the “part-time reporter,” Julien Blanc-Gras calls himself a “slightly special correspondent.” Armed with healthy detachment and unfailing humor, he takes us on a new trip around the world, with curiosity and the joy of discovery as his only compass. Across some thirty countries he recounts the mishaps and the moments of grace, from a sacred mountain in Nepal to a deserted island in Indonesia, capturing our era without ever lecturing or pontificating.
