Finalist for the Reportager Award 2015!Take a journey in a hammock up the Amazon with this charming little travelogue. Keen observer Oliver Hoeller travels in a slowboat from Colombia to Peru and shares his observations and reflections in this illustrated story. As he passes through cities and settlements he incidentally answers questions such as:What do Gustave Eiffel and Che Guevara have in common? Where is the Venice of Peru? And how much is a house there?Most images in this book were drawn on location. The immediacy of this approach will captivate you as you follow looking over Oliver's shoulder. A visually rich and entertaining visual documentary for fans of drawn narrative, armchair travelers and anyone who enjoys the whimsical.
