Solomon’s fans, readers of travel literature, and students of long-form journalism will welcome this addition.

His writing is never less than deeply perceptive writing, and wonderfully humane.

Solomon gives us a startling and insightful view of change-in-the-making over the years, while ever reminding us of our common humanity.

Solomon's reporting from far-flung places is surprisingly powerful, a bighearted response to a divisive era.

A lifetime of travel writing by Solomon includes a wide array of adventures, all wonderfully observed.

He has gifts of compassion and close attention that make people keen to confide in him.

Far and Away is a reminder that, although foreign reporting isn’t easy, and that American journalists probably get places wrong as often as they get them right, deep work is worth doing and worth paying for, both to encourage cultural exchange and because a skilled writer who reports at length may create literature.

The meaty dispatches are brilliant geopolitical travelogues that also comprise a very personal and reflective resume of the National Book Award winner’s globe-trotting adventures.

Ninguém pode acusar Andrew Solomon de não ter feito o seu trabalho de campo. Para este “atlas” de uma doença que afeta uma parte substancial da humanidade, ele carreou anos de experiência prática dolorosa.

Iubirea, fara judecata, este singura care gaseste solutii oricarei situatii, chiar si atunci cand sufletul iti este sfasiat ca aschia a sarit departe de trunchi.
