Bryson has captivated the hearts and minds of Britons with his genial character, general cheerfulness and amazing ability to simplify overwhelming science into something that can be understood by all. Not only has Bryson given us all the ability to inform ourselves on the most complex of topics, but he provides a wry and uplifting perspective on travel in all regards, from the Appalachian trail to small mining villages in England.

Sobre la figura de Shakespeare se sabe muy poco y se ha especulado mucho, probablemente demasiado. Con su habitual sabiduría, ironía y buen gusto, Bill Bryson prefiere explicarnos los hechos probados de la vida y la época de Shakespeare, y desmonta muchos de los mitos que lo rodean. Gracias a ello, este audiolibro es quizás la mejor manera de introducirse en el universo del genial dramaturgo inglés.

Story0
L'Appalachian Trail, che dalla Georgia al Maine taglia quattordici stati americani snodandosi per oltre 3400 chilometri, è il capostipite di tutti i sentieri a lunga percorrenza e dimora di una delle più grandiose foreste della zona temperata del globo. All'età di quarantaquattro anni Bill Bryson, in compagnia dell'amico Stephen Katz, decisamente sovrappeso e fuori forma, si cimenta nell'impresa di percorrere il leggendario sentiero. Nessuno di loro ha la minima cognizione delle norme elementari di sopravvivenza nella natura selvaggia.
