About the book

Ryszard Kapuściński's Travels with Herodotus combines memoir, travel writing and reflection on Herodotus's ancient Histories. As a young journalist travelling beyond Poland, Kapuściński carries Herodotus with him and finds parallels between ancient encounters and the modern cultures he experiences. The book is a meditation on travel, history and the human desire to understand unfamiliar worlds.
