Travels With Myself and Another

Out of a lifetime of travelling, Martha Gellhorn has selected her “best horror journeys”. She bumps through rain-sodden, war-torn China to meet Chiang Kai-Shek, floats listlessly in search of u-boats in the wartime Caribbean and visits a dissident writer in the Soviet Union against her better judgement.Written with the eye of a novelist and an ironic black humour, what makes these tales irresistible are Gellhorns explosive and often surprising reactions. Indignant, but never righteous and not always right, through the crucible of hell on earth emerges a woman who makes you laugh with her at life, while thanking God that you are not with her.”Martha Gellhorn at her witty, acidulous, sympathetic and wholly delightful best: fine observation of landscape and incident, and even finer observation of character”, John Simpson.
