David Caddy

Opis

Inspired by Edward Thomas and his 1913 bike tour, David Caddy climbs on his bicycle and pedals into history, literature and the history of literature. But this is not just a book about books. This is a book about leading a thoughtful life. Biography, autobiography and anthropology happily mix with criticism and observation and grow into something completely new and exciting. David Caddy thinks his thoughts to better illuminate ours. As he finds renewal and meaning in his journey, so too will the reader. This is a book about freedom and culture and what those things mean in a time when we are allowed to do anything and yet so little of it matters. David Caddy matters. Reading this excellent book matters. -Dave Newman, author of Raymond Carver Will Not Raise Our Children
