In de jaren zestig groeit Harm Edens op in een gezin met Groningse roots waarin hij vaak het gevoel heeft dat hij er niet bij hoort. Hij lacht om dingen waar niemand de humor van inziet, ziet dingen die niemand ziet en zegt dingen die niemand begrijpt. Totdat hij kennismaakt met Groot-Brittannië en zijn inwoners. Aan de hand van een twintigtal bijzondere ontmoetingen probeert Harm te achterhalen waarom hij zich zo thuis voelt op de Britse eilanden. Harm neemt de lezer mee op reis van het zuidelijkste puntje van Ierland tot de meest westelijke eilanden van Schotland naar Sint Kilda.

Wandering through Europe, Jefferson saw and learned as much as he could, ultimately bringing his knowledge home to a young America. There, he would rise to power and shape a nation. More than two hundred years later, Derek Baxter, a devotee of American history, stumbles on an obscure travel guide written by Jefferson—Hints for Americans Traveling Through Europe—as he's going through his own personal crisis.

Il viaggio più affascinante è un viaggio antico, graduale, privato e sociale insieme: il viaggio in treno. I treni sono teatri, caffè, bazar. L'unico talk-show che non conosce crisi è quello che si replica quotidianamente sulle rotaie. La confidenza genera libertà: ci ha messo insieme il caso, ci dividerà una stazione. I treni aiutano a pensare. Tutti i grandi viaggi - dai pellegrinaggi cattolici al Grand Tour, dalla prima partenza con gli amici al viaggio di nozze - sono, in fondo, una scoperta di se stessi: il panorama che c'interessa sta dentro di noi.

The landscape of the British Isles is filled with history, much of which we miss as it flashes past the car window.

As a lover of both history and the British countryside, Charlie Connelly decided to rectify this, and set out on a series of walks that recreate famous historical journeys. En route he retells the story of the original trip while discovering who and what now inhabit these iconic routes.

Schon im französischen Exil, besuchte der Wahl-Pariser Tucholsky die Pyrenäen. Natürlich konnte daraus nicht ein reiner Reisebericht entstehen; Politik, Religion, der Mensch, die Liebe, kurz: einfach alles musste mit hinein. Und das ist es denn auch: Ein Hörbuch über die Pyrenäen - und alles andere.
