Confined to his room in Turin for forty-two days after a duel, a young officer decides to make a voyage around it and write it up as travel literature. He explores his armchair, his bed, his pictures and his dog, and above all the comic quarrel between his soul and what he calls the other, the animal self.
A small, witty classic of armchair travel, as delightful now as in 1794. Download the free EPUB.
