| Description: |
Alphonso Lingis, traveller extraordinaire, discusses the trust that is inherent in travel and reflects on his many journeys. He finds a condition close to childlike innocence, where trust is ultimate and on the way discovers new truths about spirituality, masculinity, love, death, ecstasy and change. |
| Synopsis: |
In the tradition of such international travelers as Paul Theroux, Pico Iyer, and Ryszard Kapuscinski, and with insight reminiscent of John Berger and Joan Didion, Lingis shares both the private revelations and the universal connections he acquires on his exotic journeys. "Travel far enough," he concludes, "and we find ourselves happily back in the infantile world"-where trust is ultimate. |
