Description
This autobiographical book is an exceptional travelogue and deeply personal account that combines resilience, humour and an open reflection on illness. With his characteristic perspective and irony, the author describes adventures from journeys to Thailand, India, Cuba and other exotic destinations, even as he copes with progressive Parkinson’s disease. Each story is both an expedition to another part of the world and a journey into his own inner self, towards freedom and an understanding of life’s values. This is not a conventional travelogue, but a brisk and candid collection of experiences that can make readers laugh and move them. Against a backdrop of natural hazards, cultural differences and unpredictable situations, the author reveals his struggle with a body that no longer always obeys as it should. He refuses to give in, choosing humour, self-irony and an unflagging desire to explore the world instead of self-pity. The book celebrates life despite obstacles and reminds us that the human spirit can be stronger than illness. The contents are in Czech.
