'Witty and fascinating . a guide book that can't help but inspire' independent. co. uk
Anthony Bourdain saw more of the world than nearly anyone. His travels took him from his hometown of New York to a tribal longhouse in Borneo, from cosmopolitan Buenos Aires, Paris, and Shanghai to the stunning desert solitude of Oman's Empty Quarter - and many places beyond.
In World Travel , a life of experience is collected into an entertaining, practical, fun and frank travel guide that gives readers an introduction to some of his favorite places - in his own words. Featuring essential advice on how to get there, what to eat, where to stay and, in some cases, what to avoid. Additionally, each chapter includes illustrations by Wesley Allsbrook.
Supplementing Bourdain's words are a handful of essays by friends, colleagues, and family that tell even deeper stories about a place, including sardonic accounts of traveling with Bourdain by his brother, Chris; a guide to Chicago's best cheap eats by legendary music producer Steve Albini, and more.
'An enduring embodiment of Bourdain's love for the whole world and a reminder of how to stack our priorities the next time we're able to follow in his footsteps' New York Times
Biography (Anthony Bourdain)
Der französischstämmige Amerikaner Anthony Bourdain, geboren 1956 in New York, gelang mit seinem autobiografisch durchwirkten Buch Geständnisse eines Küchenchefs ein Welterfolg, seitdem legte er u.a. "Ein Küchenchef reist um die Welt" und "So koche ich" sowie mehrere Kriminalromane vor. Mit drei Jahren konnte er lesen, mit sechs hörte er Miles Davis, mit zwölf rauchte er seinen ersten Joint. Seit seinem 17. Lebensjahr arbeitet Bourdain in der Küche. Er studierte am College von Vassar und absolvierte seine Fachausbildung am Culinary Institute of America (CIA). Rund zehn Jahre lang führte er die Brasserie Les Halles in New York. Seine Fernsehserien A Cook s Tour und "Eine Frage des Geschmacks" fanden in vielen Ländern großen Anklang.
