Visiting Friends

(2020)
A non fiction book by

 
 
In the summer of 2019, fantasy writer Jo Walton set out on a European road trip to visit the homes of some of her friends, all of them dead for centuries: Voltaire, Diderot, Petrarch, Pico della Mirandola... On the same days in the locked-down summer of 2020, she wrote about her experiences the year before, the landscape, the scenery, the friends, both living and dead. When Jo Walton answers the question "What did you do on your summer holidays?" this is what you get, sonnets and all.
