Writer's World: Travels 1950-2000
Writer's World: Travels 1950-2000 | Jan Morris
4 posts | 1 to read
In an evocative collection of her travel writing and reportage from over five decades, Jan Morris has produced a unique portrait of the late 20th-century world. Ranging from New York to Venice, Oxford to the Middle East, and Wales to South Africa, Jan Morris was a witness to such seminal moments as the Eichmann trial, the first ascent of Everest, the fall of the Berlin Wall and the handover of Hong Kong.

I loved visiting America / NY back in 2019 and #theworldismyoyster made me think of that trip so going with this book I bought at the Strand (short stories by writers who left NY) and the song paired well - probably my favourite Simon & Garfunkel album. #titlesandtunes

Yeah.

AmyG I honestly don‘t get the TP hoarding. THAT‘S the most important item? 😳 5y
Tove_Reads @AmyG I would think if someone needs that much TP he would be too sore to actually use it. Just saying. 🤔🥵 5y
Andrew65 People are showing themselves to be pathetic. How much toilet paper do they use at one visit! Blame the supermarkets for letting them buy this much. When I went to the shop last week. Three key areas hit - no Hand gel, big gaps in toilet paper but high end and cheap sandpaper stuff was very evident, and thirdly ...... chocolate aisle decimated! @AmyG (edited) 5y

Tove_Reads @andrew65 Maybe these are the ones after Homo sapiens, and their fuel is TP?! Has anyone thought of this likely scenario? 5y
Andrew65 @Tove_Reads 😂 Now that explains it. 5y
Tove_Reads @Andrew65 Case closed! 5y
AmyG Well, the chocolate is understandable @Andrew65 🤣 And @Tove_Reads HA! (edited) 5y
julesG @Tove_Reads 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 5y
