Inside Secret Milan: Discover a canal lock designed by Leonardo da Vinci as well as the secrets of his Last Supper, find out where Mussolini's hidden bunker lies, marry beneath frescos by Tiepolo, visit artists houses usually closed to the public, see exceptional private collections, admire the sculpture of a young girl shaving her pudenda, look for the boxers carved on the roof terraces of the cathedral... Far from the crowds and the usual cliches, Milan goes unrecognised as one of the Italian cities with the greatest cultural heritage. Yet it only reveals its hidden treasures to residents and visitors who venture off the beaten track.

Dark Star Safari is Paul Theroux's now classic account of a journey from Cairo to Cape Town. Travelling across bush and desert, down rivers and across lakes, and through country after country, Theroux visits some of the most beautiful landscapes on earth, and some of the most dangerous. It is a journey of discovery and of rediscovery -- of the unknown and the unexpected, but also of people and places he knew as a young and optimistic teacher forty years before.

Safari in Swahili simply means "journey", and this is the ultimate safari. It is Theroux in his element -- a trip where chance encounter is everything, where departure and arrival times are an irrelevance, and where contentment can be found balancing on the top of a truck in the middle of nowhere. Praise for Paul Theroux

'Theroux's work remains the standard by which other travel writing must be judged' Observer

'Always a terrific teller of tales and conjurer of exotic locales, he writes lean prose that lopes along at a compelling pace' Sunday Times

Paul Theroux's books include Dark Star Safari, Ghost Train to the Eastern Star, Riding the Iron Rooster, The Great Railway Bazaar, The Elephanta Suite, A Dead Hand, The Tao of Travel and The Lower River. The Mosquito Coast and Dr Slaughter have both been made into successful films.

When Mathilde is forced to leave her teaching job in Oslo after her relationship with eighteen-year-old Jacob is exposed, she flees to the countryside for a more authentic life.

Her new home is a quiet cottage on the outskirts of a dairy farm run by Andres and Johs, whose hobbies include playing the fiddle and telling folktales – many of them about female rebellion and disobedience, and seeking justice, whatever it takes.

But beneath the surface of the apparently friendly and peaceful pastoral life of the farm, something darker and less harmonic starts to vibrate, and with Mathilde’s arrival, cracks start appearing … everywhere.

The Polish city of Krakow is medieval in its city centre, with its walled fortress, the Wawel (a world heritage site) and its old town, which is now largely a pedestrian precinct. The Rynek Glowny, or central square, is the largest in Europe and features the 16th century Cloth Hall and the 14th century cathedral. Nearby is the Wieliczke Salt Mine, another World heritage site, and a wonder to explore. Also nearby is Tyniec Abbey, dating back to the 11th century. 

The reverse side covers southern Poland, from Warsaw in the north to the Carpathian Mountains. Poland is one of Europes hidden treasures, with small villages and ancient towns, such as Zamosc (another world heritage site), national parks, chalk tunnels (in Chelm) a martyrs clock (in Lublin), and a bishops palace (in Kielce). Put them all together, and a marvellous travel experience unfolds!
