The White Road. A Journey Into Obsession (Vintage books)

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
"Other things in the world are white but for me porcelain comes first"
A handful of clay from a Chinese hillside carries a promise: that mixed with the right materials, it might survive the fire of the kiln, and fuse into porcelain - translucent, luminous, white.
Acclaimed writer and potter Edmund de Waal sets out on a quest - a journey that begins in the dusty city of Jingdezhen in China and travels on to Venice, Versailles, Dublin, Dresden, the Appalachian Mountains of South Carolina and the hills of Cornwall to tell the history of porcelain. Along the way, he meets the witnesses to its creation; those who were inspired, made rich or heartsick by it, and the many whose livelihoods, minds and bodies were broken by this obsession. It spans a thousand years and reaches into some of the most tragic moments of recent times.
In these intimate and compelling encounters with the people and landscapes who made porcelain, Edmund de Waal enriches his understanding of t ...

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
As mentioned in The Times Travel Book Club 2020
Award winning writer Paul Theroux embarks on a journey that, though closer to home than most of his expeditions, uncovers some surprising truths about Britain and the British people in the '80s in The Kingdom by the Sea: A Journey Around the Coast of Great Britain.
Paul Theroux's round-Britain travelogue is funny, perceptive and 'best avoided by patriots with high blood pressure...'
After eleven years living as an American in London, Paul Theroux set out to travel clockwise round the coast and find out what Britain and the British are really like. It was 1982, the summer of the Falklands War, the ideal time, he found, to surprise the British into talking about themselves. The result makes superbly vivid and engaging reading.

Into the Heart of Borneo (Penguin)

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
'We've left a lot of men in Borneo - know what I mean?' With their SAS trainer's warnings ringing in their ears, the naturalist, Redmond O'Hanlon, and the poet, James Fenton, set out to rediscover the lost rhinoceros of Borneo. They were loaded with enough back-breaking kit to survive two months in a steaming 95 (in the shade) jungle of creeping, crawling, biting things. O'Hanlon could also rely on his encyclopedic knowledge of the region's flora and fauna, and had read-up on how to avoid being eaten by anything (stick your thumbs in a crocodile's eyes, if you have time). And yet they proceeded to have an adventure that neither O'Hanlon, nor his friend, nor even his guides were remotely prepared for…

The Great Railway Bazaar. By Train Through Asia (Penguin)
скидки на товар нигде нет ;( это обычная* цена - 2163.00 руб.
|
ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
The Great Railway Bazaar is Paul Theroux's classic and much-loved homage to train travel.
The Orient Express; The Khyber Pass Local; the Delhi Mail from Jaipur; the Golden Arrow of Kuala; the Trans-Siberian Express; these are just some of the trains steaming through Paul Theroux's epic rail journey from London across Europe through India and Asia. This was a trip of discovery made in the mid-seventies, a time before the West had embraced the places, peoples, food, faiths and cultures of the East. For us now, as much as for Theroux then, to visit the lands of The Great Railway Bazaar is an encounter with all that is truly foreign and exotic - and with what we have since lost.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
'This book is a record of what has moved me between Uxbridge and Dagenham. My hope is that it moves you, too.'
Nairn's London is an idiosyncratic, poetic and intensely subjective meditation on a city and its buildings. Including railway stations, synagogues, abandoned gasworks, dock cranes, suburban gardens, East End markets, Hawksmoor churches, a Gothic cinema and twenty-seven different pubs, it is a portrait of the soul of a place, from a writer of genius.

Notes From a Small Island (Transworld)

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
In 1995, before leaving his much-loved home in North Yorkshire to move back to the States for a few years with his family, Bill Bryson insisted on taking one last trip around Britain, a sort of valedictory tour of the green and kindly island that had so long been his home. His aim was to take stock of the nation's public face and private parts (as it were), and to analyse what precisely it was he loved so much about a country that had produced Marmite; a military hero whose dying wish was to be kissed by a fellow named Hardy; place names like Farleigh Wallop, Titsey and Shellow Bowells; people who said 'Mustn't grumble', and 'Ooh lovely' at the sight of a cup of tea and a plate of biscuits; and Gardeners' Question Time. Notes from a Small Island was a huge number-one bestseller when it was first published, and has become the nation's most loved book about Britain, going on to sell over two million copies.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
London Orbital is Iain Sinclair's exceptional voyage of discovery into the unloved outskirts of the city
Encircling London like a noose, the M25 is a road to nowhere, but when Iain Sinclair sets out to walk this asphalt loop - keeping within the 'acoustic footprints' - he is determined to find out where the journey will lead him. Stumbling upon converted asylums, industrial and retail parks, ring-fenced government institutions and lost villages, Sinclair discovers a Britain of the fringes, a landscape consumed by developers. London Orbital charts this extraordinary trek and round trip of the soul, revealing the country as you've never seen it before.

How to Live Off-Grid (Bantam books)

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Haven't you ever wanted to get out of the rat race, buck the system, escape? Whether for the weekend or for a lifetime, Nick Rosen explores off-grid living combining irreverent travellogue with 'how-to' essentials.
Literally, the word 'off-grid' refers to places or people without mains water, power or phone line. Off-grid locations can range from private islands to yurts and tree-houses; the people living there might be back-packers, right wing survivalists, international business travellers or hippies; they may move around in buses or yachts, houseboats or 4-wheel drives. All are outside or inbetween the criss-crossing lines of power, water and phone that delineate the civilised world. Some are trying to save the planet, some live that way because it is all they can afford, some just want the freedom.
This book is about that physical sense of off-grid. But it is also about taking the off-grid attitude into your local park or your own back garden. It is part travel ...

The January Man. A Year of Walking Britain (Black Swan)
скидки на товар нигде нет ;( это обычная* цена - 2165.00 руб.
|
ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
The January Man is the story of a year of walks that was inspired by a song, Dave Goulder's 'The January Man'. Month by month, season by season and region by region, Christopher Somerville walks the British Isles, following routes that continually bring his father to mind.
As he travels the country - from the winter floodlands of the River Severn to the lambing pastures of Nidderdale, the towering seabird cliffs on the Shetland Isle of Foula in June and the ancient oaks of Sherwood Forest in autumn - he describes the history, wildlife, landscapes and people he encounters, down back lanes and old paths, in rain and fair weather.
This exquisitely written account of the British countryside not only inspires us to don our boots and explore the 140,000 miles of footpaths across the British Isles, but also illustrates how, on long-distance walks, we can come to an understanding of ourselves and our fellow walkers.
Over the hills and along the byways, Christophe ...

Embarking in the autumn of 1979, Saramago resolves to travel to Portugal, as well as through it. As his country emerges from an authoritarian dictatorship, he traverses his beloved homeland, neglecting its grand 'sights' in favour of Romanesque churches and cobweb-ridden chapels, determined to find belonging in the landscape which went on to inform his greatest works of fiction.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
'I hereby bet Tony Hawks the sum of One Hundred Pounds that he cannot hitchhike round the circumference of Ireland, with a fridge, within one calendar month'
A foolhardy attempt to win a drunken bet led to Tony Hawks having one of the most unforgettable experiences of his life. Joined by his trusty travelling-companion-cum-domestic-appliance, he found himself in the midst of a remarkable, inspirational and, at times, downright silly adventure.
In their month of madness, Tony and his fridge surfed together; entered a batchelor festival; and one of them had sex without the other knowing. The fridge got christened, and they even met the poorest king on Earth.
An absurd story of an extraordinary adventure, Round Ireland with a Fridge follows the fearless pair as they battle towards Dublin and a breathtaking finale that is moving, uplifting, and a fitting conclusion to the whole ridiculous affair.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Setting off in his hometown, and ending up 'almost at the end of the world', Paul Theroux's The Old Patagonian Express is a travel writing tour de force from one of the masters of the genre contains a new preface by the author in Penguin Modern Classics.
'The journey, not the arrival, matters'
The Old Patagonian Expresstells of Paul Theroux's train journey down the length of North and South America. Beginning on Boston's subway, he depicts a voyage from ice-bound Massachusetts to the arid plateau of Argentina's most southerly tip, via pretty Central American towns and the ancient Incan city of Macchu Pichu. Shivering and sweating by turns as the temperature and altitude rise and plummet, he describes the people he encountered - thrown in with the tedious, and unavoidable, Mr Thornberry in Limon and reading to the legendary blind writer, Jorge Luis Borges, in Buenos Aires. Witty, sharply observed and beautifully written, this is a richly evocati ...

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
… Уже много лет мои иногородние друзья, приятели и коллеги просят меня показать им мой город Екатеринбург. Не тот, что описывают в сухих туристических справочниках или модных хипстерских молодёжных гидах, а именно Мой. Им интересно, где я родился и вырос, где проходили буйные, уже ставшие легендой, рок-клубовские времена. Они спрашивают, в какой музей сходить, в каком клубе провести вечер, где купить сувениры на память, где поесть и где выпить. В общем, после многих лет этих бесконечных вопросов и ответов на них в моей голове сама собой сложилась структура гида-путеводителя по Екатеринбургу от Владимира Шахрина...
Редкий случай, когда звезда общероссийского уровня остается жить в родном городе, а не уезжает в Москву. Именно так поступил сооснователь и автор большинства песен группы ЧАЙФ Владимир Шахрин. И он, и его друзья-коллеги по группе ЧАЙФ живут в Екатеринбурге. Дневник-путеводитель "Екатеринбург в оранжевом настроении" - это пара сотен страниц и больше ста объектов, за каждым из которых стоит

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
По всей России встречается огромное количество малоизвестных исторических памятников, которые теряются на фоне популярных туристических мест. Некоторые достопримечательности сегодня находятся под угрозой исчезновения. Каждый год безвозвратно исчезают сотни объектов, представляющих историческую ценность. А ведь многие из них ещё до конца не изучены историками и археологами.
Золотое кольцо России - самый известный туристический маршрут. Внутри него собраны уникальные памятники старины: Золотые ворота и Успенский собор во Владимире, Суздальский и Ростовский кремль, палаты царевича Дмитрия в Угличе и Троице-Сергиева лавра. Однако и вокруг Золотого кольца огромное количество памятников и храмов, которые не вошли в состав традиционного туристического маршрута, но не менее привлекательны для путешественников: церковь с подземным ходом до самого кремля; место, где началась династия Романовых; храм, построенный князем Вяземским; старообрядческая церковь и многое-многое другое.

Уже более восьми лет он ездит по России и бывшим советским республикам в поисках необычных объектов архитектуры, некогда обитаемых, а теперь покинутых мест, чтобы увидеть "следы высокоразвитой цивилизации", простиравшейся от северных ледяных морей до жарких пустынь Средней Азии, от балтийских городов до бескрайней тайги Дальнего Востока и сделать памятные снимки.
В книге Арсения Котова "Заброшенные города СССР" вы увидите самые легендарные заброшенные места России и постсоветского пространства и познакомитесь с интересными историями из путешествий по Припяти, Байконуру, Норильску, Магадану, Воркуте и многим другим городам.
