And now Simon Winder is here to tell us everything else there is to know about this mesmerizing, tortured and endlessly fascinating country.

The twelve sheep have come into his life at just the right moment. After years of hard work, John felt a deep tiredness creeping up on him, a sadness that he couldn't shrug off. Having always sought spiritual guidance, he comes to realize that, in addition to the soothing words of literature and philosophy, perhaps the way ahead involves this simple flock of sheep. In the hard work of livestock rearing, in the long nights in the shed helping the sheep to lamb, he can reflect on what life truly means.

He embarks on an epic adventure across sacred British landscapes – climbing into remote sea caves, sleeping inside Neolithic tombs, scaling forgotten holy mountains and once marooning himself at sea.

Вечный город! "Вечным" его называли еще в I веке до нашей эры, когда ему было около семисот лет. Столица Италии неумолимо приближается к празднованию своего 2800-летия, которое состоится в апреле 2047 года. В наше стремительное время существуют обзорные экскурсии "Весь Рим за один день". Но провести в Риме всего день и что-то понять невозможно — все равно, что выучить за день весь курс высшей математики. Не обольщайтесь и не будете разочарованы. Рим открывается не сразу и открывается только сведущим. Открывается и затягивает.

Ein kurzweiliger Atlas für alle, die schon immer ahnten, dass unter unseren Füßen eine versunkene Welt liegt.
