While the various contributors to this collection travel for different reasons, they all come back with stories. Whether traversing the Arctic by dogsled, attending a surreal film festival in North Korea, or strolling the streets of a fast-changing Havana, some of today's best travel writers share their experiences of the world and the human condition, offering, if not answers, than illumination and insight.
