A kaleidoscopic, fastpaced tour of Latin America from one of the Spanishspeaking worlds most outstanding writers.Lamenting not having more time to get to know each of the nineteen countries he visits after winning the prestigious Premio Alfaguara, Andrs Neuman begins to suspect that world travel consists mostly of not seeing. But then he realizes that the fleeting nature of his trip provides him with a unique opportunity touring and comparing every country of Latin America in a single stroke. Neuman writes on the move, generating a kinetic work that is at once puckish and poetic, aphoristic and brimming with curiosity. Even socalled nonplacesairports, hotels, taxisare turned into powerful symbols full of meaning. A dual ArgentineSpanish citizen, he incisively explores cultural identity and nationality, immigration and globalization, history and language, and turbulent current events. Above all, Neuman investigates the artistic lifeblood of Latin America, tackling with gusto not only literary heavyweights such as Bolao, Vargas Llosa, Lorca, and Galeano, but also an emerging generation of authors and filmmakers whose impact is now making ripples worldwide.Eyeopening and charmingly offbeat, How to Travel without Seeing Dispatches from the New Latin America is essential reading for anyone interested in the past, present, and future of the Americas.
