PREFERRED TRAVELER
Paul Theroux is America’s premier travel writer. Thirty years after his classic travel narrative The Great Railway Bazaar, Theroux has retraced his train travels through Eastern Europe, Central Asia, India, China, Japan, and Siberia to bring us Ghost Train to the Eastern Star: 28,000 Miles in Search of the Railway Bazaar. A close observer of the unfamiliar and the strange, he charts both the evolution and failure of today’s world. “Theroux’s real work is not about travel … it’s about the progress of the soul.”
