Críticas
I LOVE [the] book! It's the best possible kind of travel writing - funny, very personal, informative, very varied, omnivorous. (Edmund White)
...the most engaging, enjoyable book, full of cleverness on every page...very, very funny. Really love it. (Nicholas Coleridge Condé Nast UK)
Duncan Fallowell's long-awaited hedonistic masterpiece. (Spectator Books of the Year 2007)
a frisky little masterpiece. (Country Life)
very trippy, very brilliant, very odd - really, it's like nothing else. (Jonathan Meades)
Opinionated, unpredictable and quite fearless, Fallowell has penned a travel classic. (Independent)
Funny, perceptive and disconcertingly honest ... but also an eloquent, almost painterly evocation of a country ...he came to love. (Mail on Sunday)
Brutally honest and immensely engaging ...I, for one, loved it. (Wanderlust)
Part memoir, part travel journal, this is a colourful, hedonistic and oddly moving journey...I loved it. (Sunday Telegraph)
Amusing, informative and perfectly paced, this is travel writing at its finest. (Sainsbury's Magazine)
Reseña del editor
When Duncan Fallowell was left some money by a friend he decided to put into practice a long held idea - to travel as far as possible from home so that he need never travel again and could relax. For him this meant travelling to New Zealand, where another fantasy soon asserted itself - 'to find the place of perfect exile'. Fallowell's curiosity leads him onto the strangest paths and he found himself in pursuit of unknown painters and lost buildings and sex underground, of Karl Popper and a creature with the third eye and rose wine, of Vivien Leigh and Laurence Olivier who'd toured the country in the year of Fallowell's birth, of suicidal writers and nuns and elusive answers to impossible questions. The faraway paradise gradually turns into a glittering stranger on the Pacific rim, filled with the uncertainties of our times - but also a wonderful place to breathe. The result is a moving encounter with the past, an anxious gaze into the future, but most of all a vivid voyage through the contemporary world, by turns profound, comical and erotic.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
