Description for Yoga for People Who Can't Be Bothered to Do It
paperback. ' A screamingly funny genre-defying feat .. sublime.' Maggie O'Farrell, Daily Telegraph Num Pages: 256 pages. BIC Classification: WTL. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 130 x 197 x 18. Weight in Grams: 178.
From Amsterdam to Cambodia, from Rome to Indonesia, from New Orleans to Libya, and from Detroit to Ko Pha-Ngan, Geoff Dyer finds himself both floundering about in a sea of grievances and finding moments of transcendental calm. This aberrant quest for peak experiences leads, ultimately, to the Black Rock Desert in Nevada, where, to quote Tarkovsky's Stalker, 'your most cherished desire will come true'.
