Paperback
In a world where nothing is ever sensible, coherent, or even vaguely helpful, one traveller—armed with a deeply unreliable sense of direction and a heroic disregard for common sense—stopped waiting for things to improve and attempted the impossible: to find meaning in every country in South America. A task nobody had asked for and several people had strongly advised against. Each country offered its own version of reality, none of them particularly stable, all of them unforgettable.
Funny, restless, and unexpectedly profound, this is a book about movement, misdirection, and the peculiar clarity that sometimes appears when everything else stops making sense. It is an affectionate examination of the absurdity of existence, and of the continent that seems most determined to demonstrate it. This is not a guidebook. It is a celebration of getting lost, staying lost, and discovering that bewilderment may be the most honest response the world has to offer.
