3/$21 The Art of Travel by Alain de Botton Book

Excellent used condition. No damage to note. All books are fully readable without issue. Bundle 3 books & I'll send you the offer, up to 9 books max due shipping restrictions. Any Baedeker will tell us where we ought to travel, but only Alain de Botton will tell us how and why. With the same intelligence and insouciant charm he brought to How Proust Can Save Your Life, de Botton considers the pleasures of anticipation; the allure of the exotic, and the value of noticing everything from a seascape in Barbados to the takeoffs at Heathrow. Even as de Botton takes the reader along on his own peregrinations, he also cites such distinguished fellow-travelers as Baudelaire, Wordsworth, Van Gogh, the biologist Alexander von Humboldt, and the 18th-century eccentric Xavier de Maistre, who catalogued the wonders of his bedroom. The Art of Travel is a wise and utterly original book. Don’t leave home without it. Don't forget to bundle and save! First time on Poshmark? Use my invite code SASSIESTSTELLA when you sign up for $15 off your first order! Box 304
