The Peking to St Pancras Express

By Matthew Weitz

The Peking to St Pancras Express is the epic story of a 10,000 mile journey across 14 countries, an exploration of divided empires and conflicts over arbitrary and outdated national borders. It is the personal story of reflections of Matthew Weitz, a young professional taking the slow road home from Asia to Europe. He reflects on changing influences and the rise of China, ethnic and religious tensions in the former Soviet and Ottoman empires, on a journey that brings him across deserts to a dying sea and to the ever present but changing bazaars of the old silk road. Told with humour and shrewd observation, he provides an eloquent snapshot of a broad range of different lives, from Beijing to London.
