Full description for A Writer's World
In a hugely evocative collection of her travel writing and reportage from five decades, Jan Morris has produced a unique portrait of the late twentieth century world. Ranging from New York to Venice, Oxford to the Middle East, and Wales to South Africa, Jan Morris was a witness to such seminal moments as the Eichmann trial, the first ascent of Everest, the fall of the Berlin Wall and the handover of Hong Kong. And, as ever, she displays her unique and inimitable literary style, at once funny, wise and sad.
