LoveReading View on Destination Russia
This is one of the best books that I have read in a long long time!
At first, I was a little unsure about what to expect, but I was not disappointed with this book. The author takes the reader on a journey across the vast expanse of Russia but in the form of 'short stories' about what is met whilst travelling. Each story is completely different and yet relevant to form the story as a whole and as such makes for delightful enjoyable reading.
The book itself covers many genres and would delight anyone who picks it up. It is a very descriptive book with the author allowing the reader to feel as if they are actually travelling on the journey. A tourist guide it most definitely is not, but a book full of so many emotions, excitement, comedy, fear, loneliness and so forth and by the time the reader has read to the destination of the line, they will be quite impressed with what they have just read.
I won't give detailed or short descriptions of the stories within the story of the book as this is a book that the reader needs to read for her/himself in order to appreciate the whole story and also the authors' style of writing which I may add is excellent.
All in all an excellent fictional book which guarantees the reader an excellent read.

Worldzapping in offerta su Amazon
Per tutto il mese di agosto "Worldzapping. Racconti di viaggio" in versione ebook è in offerta su Amazon a 2,99 euro.
https://www.amazon.it/World-zapping-R...
"Dal Burkina Faso alla Transiberiana, da Alice Springs a Catania, da Yerevan a Pechino, il tratto distintivo di questi brevi racconti è la curiosità di leggere una storia dietro un simbolo, di trovare una vita dietro un viso, di scoprire una regola dentro il caos e poi di raccontare tutto ciò con semplicità, senza fronzoli, senza mettersi troppo in mostra: puro spirito di servizio.
La penna sa mettere ordine in questo marasma di percezioni che è il viaggio e forse, per “Fabio e Roby”, è anche il migliore trait-d’union per due vite."

Edizione in inglese!
Con grande gioia condivido qui una notizia per me molto bella. E' appena uscito "Destination Russia. A ship and a cat in the tundra and other extra-ordinary encounters", l'edizione in inglese del mio ultimo libro di viaggio! :-):
https://www.amazon.com/Destination-Ru...
"The road to travel with Destination Russia is a long one: it takes many hours by train. But there is no time to be bored: the journey is a continuous discovery unveiling the true essence of this extraordinary country through encounters with ordinary people met in environments only cold in appearance but which, in reality, warm the heart. Destination Russia is, then, the narration of a string of unforgettable stories: the elderly lady travelling towards a remote archipelago in search of “hope” or Yashik, with his face marked by life, who already beyond the Arctic Circle, tells us he comes from North, the meeting with a cat (rather, a female cat) in the tundra, or the one with a couple of railway workers, living their love aboard the world’s longest railway line, or with the students of a school-museum. Even the one with an uncontaminated lake or simply with compartment mates on the train “where all of Russia travels”. The authors show us an extraordinary world through their eyes, a gaze that manifests all their love for this endless land, a passion as limitless as Russia itself, able to overcome geographical boundaries to reach the soul."
