Its aim, to break down barriers and introduce the essence of the place. Packed with essays and investigative journalism; original photography and illustrations; charts, and unusual facts and observations, each volume offers a unique insight into a different culture, and how history has shaped the place into what it is today. Brimming with intricate research and enduring der, The Passenger is a love-letter to global travel. IN THIS VOLUME, Petros Markaris, Matteo Nucci, Christos Ikonomou among other Greek writers aim to tell the all-important stories of one of the most talked-about country, that fail to make headlines. Few countries have received more media attention in recent years and even fewer have been represented in such vastly divergent ways. There’s a downside to all this attention: everyone seems to have something final to say about Greece. News headlines replace people’s individual stories, impressions substitute facts, characters take the place of people. In this volume of The Passenger, we chose to set those opinions aside in to give to the stories, facts, and people of Greece the dignity and centrality they deserve.IN THIS VOLUME, Petros Markaris, Matteo Nucci, Christos Ikonomou among other Greek writers aim to tell the all-important stories of one of the most talked-about country, that fail to make headlines.• Super Leads • Literary Travel/Travel Essays • High-end art, contemporary culture, foreign and world affairs magazines • High-end travel-themed magazines • Literature and narrative non-fiction in translation • Sophisticated, curious, informed, and worldly readers FUTURE ISSUES • BRAZIL and TURKEY: Autumn 2020 • NORWAY and INDIA: Spring 2021 • BERLIN and CHINA: Autumn 2021 Review Quote“These books are so rich and engrossing that it is rewarding to read them even when one is stuck at home.” Review Quote“Few travel guides are confident enough to tell the stories of a destination’s complex realities as well as those of their beauty. [The Passenger] has a strong focus on storytelling, with pages given over to a mix of essays, playlists and sideways glances at subcultures and thorny urban issues.” Review Quote“Half-magazine, half-book . . . think of [The Passenger] as an erudite and literary travel equivalent to National Geographic, with stunning photography and illustration and fascinating writing about place.” Review Quote“The Passenger readers will find none of the typical travel guide sections on where to eat or what sights to see. Consider the books, rather, more like a literary vacation--the kind you can take without braving a long flight in the time of Covid-19.” Review Quote“Fresh and diverting, informative and topical without being slight or ephemeral [...] This supremely well-edited combination of current affairs, journalism, commentary, and fun facts is perfect for our pause-button moment.” Review QuoteTremendously eclectic and classily produced . . . each volume gets under the skin of a country or a city in a multifaceted way that feels essential in these times of narrowing national horizons.” Giá sản phẩm trên Tiki đã bao gồm thuế theo luật hiện hành.
