Been There, Read That! Stories for the Armchair Traveller

"Travel the world, from Austria to Vietnam, without leaving your favourite armchair!" "Been There, Read That: Stories for the Armchair Traveller is a collection of short stories from around the world. Some of the authors are well known in their native language, others are relative newcomers; for many, this is the first time their work has appeared in English. In every case, the translators invite you to share the pleasures of their art: encountering a new voice, connecting with another culture, seeing the world through very different eyes." --Book Jacket.
