Дао путника

The book of non-fiction master Alexander Genis is a collection of selected travel prose with secret lyrical interludes. This volume offers a special — author's — set of genres: rather stories than essays, sketches, rather than advice, and dialogues wherever possible. Disputing the borrowed erudition of Wikipedia, Genis's travelogues describe the fragments of world landscapes that are kept in the memoir safe. Not what the author saw, but what he took with him — a view, a remark, a dish, an exhibit, or a quote, finally finding its place and homeland.
