Informationen zum Autor Ann Morgan is a freelance writer and editor. She continues to blog about books at ayearofreadingtheworld.com and lives with her husband Steve Lennon in south London. Klappentext In 2012 the world arrived in London for the Olympics...and Ann Morgan went out to meet it. She read her way around all the globe's 196 independent countries (plus one extra) sampling one book from every nation. It wasn't easy. Many languages have next to nothing translated into English; there are tiny tucked-away places where very little is written down at all; some governments don't like to let works of art leak out to corrupt Westerners.Her literary adventures shed light on the issues that affect us all: personal political national and global. Using her quest as a starting point this book explores questions such as: What is cultural heritage? How do we define national identity? Is it possible to overcome censorship and propaganda? And how can we celebrate challenge and change our remarkable world?
