Land of Lost Borders: Out of Bounds on the Silk Road
'Every day on a bike trip is like the one before, but it is also completely different, or perhaps you are different, woken up in new ways by the mile.'
A travel narrative at once exuberant and meditative, wry and rapturous, Lands of Lost Borders weaves adventure and deep reflection with the history of science and exploration to explore the nature of limits and the wildness of a world that (like the self and like the stars) can never be fully mapped.
"Exemplary travel writing: inspiring, moving, heartfelt, and often breathtaking.” -- Kirkus Reviews
