A feast of fiction for armchair travelersNineteen of our most exciting writers chronicle trips and travails, voyages and visits, and moments of triumph, tragedy, and transcendence. They explore such diverse locales as Australia's living Great Barrier Reef; a temple in Thailand filled with shimmering Buddhas; a bizarre street performance by a traveling circus in Freiburg, Germany; Inca ruins in Peru; Bulgaria's Black Sea coast; and many other places which, whether exotic or familiar, have never been seen in quite this way before.
