![]() Off the Road$13.00 ![]() "Our deeds travel with us from afar," wrote George Elliot, "and what we have been makes us what we are." Off the Road is Harper's Magazine Contributing Editor Jack Hitt's story of his own travels along the 500-mile medieval pilgrimage route from Saint-Jean Pied de Port, in France, to Santiago del Compostello, in Spain. Equal parts As I Walked Out One Midsummer Morning and The Canterbury Tales, Hitt's story is a blend of adventure and meditation written by one of the most thoughtful prose stylists of our time. "Hitt provides the intellectual epiphanies that journeys demand, in infinitely more exhilarating and ambitious fashion than more earnest writers. . . His account of metamorphosing into a barking savage as he is pursued by dogs in a field, and then by bolts of lightning, is one of the funniest things I've read."—Annette Kobak, NY Times Book Review |
