The Writer Abroad

Literary Travels from Austria to Uzbekistan

Ed. Lucinda Hawksley
From tours of Britain and Europe by Daniel Defoe and Ann Radcliffe to adventures further afield, such as Charles Darwin’s voyage to Australia or Roald Dahl’s time in north Africa, this illustrated collection records writers’ responses to the landscapes, flora, fauna, or people they encountered while travelling. Taken from letters, journals and books, the extracts reflect the wonder and inspiration authors experienced while exploring the continents.
