New York Times bestselling author Colin Thubron returns with a moving, intimate, and exquisitely crafted travel memoir recounting his pilgrimage to the Hindu and Buddhist holy mountain of Kailas whose peak represents the most sacred place on Earth to roughly a quarter the global population. With echoes of Peter Matthiessen s The Snow Leopard, Peter Hessler s Country Driving, and Paul Theoroux s Ghost Train to the Eastern Star, Thubron s follow up to his bestselling Shadow of the Silk Road will illuminate, interest, and inspire anyone interested in traveling the world or journeying into the soul.
