Travel the world with Robert Gernhardt! The poet, painter, and satirist Robert Gernhardt was a great traveler throughout his life, as evidenced by many of his texts and drawings. Additionally, he documented his experiences and observations in various countries across Europe and the world in his legendary Brunnen notebooks. A selection of these notes has now been compiled for the first time, resulting in a unique type of travel guide: Gernhardt's sharp, intelligent, sometimes ironic, and sometimes melancholic perspective on the land and its people, architecture and art, nature and tourism casts popular travel destinations in an unusual light, diverging from the cosmopolitan mainstream.
