Guidene inneholder få bilder, og er dermed først og fremst en informativ, heller enn en inspirerende guide - men den er likevel garantert å vekke reiselysten i deg.

Full of fun and practical travel information, this comprehensive guidebook takes you from familiar destinations like Ojai, California, long known for its inclusivity, to surprising spots like Eureka Springs, Arkansas, a small town that has been welcoming to the LGBTQIA community for decades. With an eye toward memorable and meaningful experiences, each destination highlights what to see, where to eat, and where to stay - without focusing solely on gay bars and pride parades. Each robust itinerary - a guide to Curaçao’s beaches, Christmas in the Cotswolds, or a kitschy trip to Dollywood - provides all the information needed for a well-rounded vacation that also supports local LGBTQIA communities.

Covering over 150 different activities, Outdoor Europe will have you itching to get back to nature.

Bursting with beautiful images, this inspirational book rounds up Europe's most incredible outdoor experiences, covering everything from birdwatching and forest bathing to scuba diving and wild swimming.

Forlagets omtale:

over grensen og hjem er den nye boken til en av latin-amerikas mest anerkjente nålevende forfattere. Erasmus aragon bor I mexico der han jobber som journalist, men drømmer stadig om å vende tilbake til sitt hjemland el salvador. Han planlegger å starte et nytt liv og jobbe for et tidsskrift. Han ser det samtidig som en rømningsvei vekk fra det stormfulle forholdet til eva, som han har en datter med. Men før han reiser besøker han legen chente for å få hjelp med magesmerter. Legen foreslår hypnose og erasmus blir etterhvert usikker på hva han har fortalt legen under behandlingen, samtidig blir han stadig mer paranoid ettersom han minnes mer og mer fra sitt tidligere liv I el salvador. «et velkomment, øyeåpnende bidrag til den nye litteraturen om det latinamerikanske marerittet" anderson tepper - time out new york «det er dusinvis av øyeblikk I over grensen og hjem, den kjappe, fantastiske nye romanen til horacio castellanos moya, der leseren forventer at fortellingen beveger seg mot det surrealistiske. (...) men det briljante med hr. Castellanos moyas nye roman, helt klart hans beste så langt, ligger I hvor urokkelig den nekter å benytte disse gamle triksene. (... ) den har den intense vitalitet til stor litteratur, den typen som viser det spesifikt menneskelige I omstendigheter der vår medfølelse ellers for det meste ville forblitt teoretisk.» charles finch, the new york times «herlig komisk og urovekkende (...) castellanos moya har gjort angst til en kunstform og en opprørshandling.» natasha wimmer - the nation «besk humor, som en buster keaton film eller en tidsinnstilt bombe.» roberto bolaño
