So It Goes by Nicholas Bouvier

A collection of Bouvier s best travel stories, covering: the Aran Isles, lowland Scotland, Islay, Xian inChina, Korea and Bouvier s childhood home, Switzerland.
Nicolas Bouvier was born in 1929 near Geneva. Without waiting for the result of his degree, in 1953 he left for Yugoslavia with no intention of returning. The fruits of this journey of a year and a half, were published some eight years later, as The Way of the World. Bouvier continued, through India to Ceylon and thence to Japan. From his experience in Japan, where he was to live for more than a year and to revisit in the 1960s and 1970s, came a distillation of experiences, The Japanese Chronicles, which were published in their final version in 1975. He died in 1998 in Geneva.
