Portrait of a continent

This book was published several years ago but its portraits of Europeans remains vivid and provoking. Even though it's out of print (shame on the publisher!), this remains one of the best examples of literary journalism, and a valuable travel reader for anyone visiting Europe. It's well-worth the effort of buying it second-hand and we can only hope that it will be reprinted in the future.
