European City Breaks

An Alternative Mode of Transport

As we cannot travel by plane, train or automobile, why not be transported by these nine authors to some of Europe's greatest cities. Journey across the continent from Lisbon (Fernando Pessoa) to Helsinki (Tove Jansson) through Madrid (Ben Lerner), Florence (E. M. Forster), Athens (Rachel Cusk), Istanbul (Elif Shafak), Berlin (Jenny Erpenbeck), Prague (Milan Kundera) and Paris (Colette). Bon Voyage!
