Zoroaster's Children by MARIUS KOCIEJOWSKI, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Bringing together the best of Marius Kociejowski's travel writing Zoroaster's Children snags on the borderline between dream and meaning, offering unusual glimpses of some of the places, exotic or otherwise, the author has been. Attracted to society's outcasts—as it is these, he argues, which point towards an underground of conformity that will not contain them Kociejowski offers ain these essays glimpses of locales as diverse and seemingly divergent as Prague, Tunisia, Moscow, Aleppo and Toronto, among others. By turns empathetic and virtuosic, and always on the lookout for the deeper meaning seeded inside language, the essays in Zoroaster's Children evince the deep absorption in people and places which is the hallmark of all great travel writers. | Zoroaster's Children by MARIUS KOCIEJOWSKI, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
