An improbable world beckons. We think we know Madagascar, but it's too big, too eccentric and too impenetrable to be truly understood. If it was stretched out across Europe, the islands would reach from London to Algiers, and yet its road network is barely bigger than tiny Jamaica's. There is no evidence of any human life until about 10,000 years ago, and, when eventually people settled, it was migrants from Borneo - 3,700 miles away - who came out on top.

Nowhere in Africa is the extraordinary tale of a Jewish family who flees the Nazi regime in 1938 for a remote farm in Kenya. Abandoning their once-comfortable existence in Germany, Walter Redlich, his wife Jettel, and their five-year-old daughter, Regina, each deal with the harsh realities of their new life in different ways.

Per svago, per studio e per lavoro. Ci spostiamo continuamente, per periodi più o meno lunghi, sempre più spesso e sempre più lontano. E quando non siamo noi a viaggiare, lo fanno le merci, le mode, le idee. Ma cosa succede nella testa di chi viaggia? Quando e perché decidiamo di partire? Che cosa cerchiamo? Cosa ci guida nella scelta della meta e che cosa lasciamo per poter veramente trovare noi stessi?

Then, two epic journeys with his father and brother: walking 375 miles from Durban to Lourenco Marques when he was 12-years-old, and then, two years later, a 1,200-mile bicycle ride to Beira in Mocambique.
