Cult Francophone travel writing by an author who combines the talents of Chatwin and Kerouac. This is the story of a road journey from Serbia to Afghanistan in the 50s when the going was good, before the hippy trail, the wars, and when two young men could still stop to find work in Istanbul, Tabriz or Quetta to fund the next leg of their journey. Published for the first time in English with the powerful pen and ink illustrations of his travelling companion, the artist Thierry Vernet.
