内容简介

A travel guide and a journal of one traveler's journey, here is an intimate look at a singular place. The record of a four-month stay in the Basque Country, traveling from Biarritz to Bilboa, Postcards is anecdotal and inspirational. Written as if it were a series of postcards and letters from the author to the reader, this book immediately engages readers as they are drawn into the experience of the journey.

Postcards celebrates both the ordinary and the extraordinary and looks at the familiar in the foreign. Nelson's writings cover various aspects of events and terrain in this fascinating and romantic region-covering topics specific and abstract, such as: Dreams, the Sea, the Heart, Parades and Fiestas, and Food.
