| Summary/Abstract |
No man is an island. Each of us is defined by the people and the world around us, as these remarkable stories show again and again. This book takes the reader on an extraordinary journey, far across the globe and deep into the lives of a handful of its citizens. Over the course of the pages, the world both opens out and rushes in. Vivid, urgent and full of humanity this is a remarkable collection.
