Travel journalist Sarah Baxter provides comprehensive and atmospheric outlines of the
history and culture of 25 literary places around the globe , as well as how they intersect with the
lives of the authors and the works that make them significant.
Full-page colour illustrations instantly transport you to each location. You’ll find that these places are not just backdrops to the tales told, but characters in their own right.

J.D. Salinger ’s antihero. Explore the lush and languid backwaters of
