About This Novel

Want Calvino to take you to see an exhibition at the Center Pompidou, pick out new books at Shakespeare and Company, or travel to Japan, Mexico and Iran? Let's read "The Traveler Who Collected Sand". "The Traveler Who Collects Sand" is a collection of essays by Calvino about visiting exhibitions, reading, and traveling. In a imaginative way, he tells us how to hold our breath while watching an exhibition, how to be attentive and wandering, how to draw from other sources while reading, and how to follow the local customs while being aloof from the world. Calvino used his endless imagination to transcend the original limitations of these articles. He not only saw the world traveled by travelers from the sand collection, but also saw the core of existence of millions of phenomena in reading and traveling.
