Omschrijving
- The author is a noted authority on the Camino pilgrimage. She has dedicated three decades to unearthing the mysteries, lore, and many-sensory experiences of this massive and ancient network of roads that are all destined for the northwest of Iberia. In addition to her five previously published books, Bahrami is also known for her essays and articles on travel, archaeology, outdoors and adventure, food and wine, spiritual, and cross-cultural themes. Bahrami's essays and articles have appeared in BBC Travel, Archaeology, Wine Enthusiast, The Bark, Bon Vivant, The Pennsylvania Gazette, National Geographic books, Expedition, Fodors.com, Transitions Abroad, and Perceptive Travel, among others
- Bahrami's original voice is something of a cross between Mary Oliver's presence and reverence, Bill Bryson's humor and irreverence, and John McPhee's observation and inquiry.
- Interest in the Camino is longstanding and growing. When Bahrami first walked the Camino in 1995, 19,821 people walked it that year. In 2019, the same year as the release of Bahrami's guidebook, Moon Camino de Santiago (Avalon Travel/Hachette), officials on the Camino estimated that nearly half a million people would complete the trail.
- The majority of Camino memoirs recount the journey of a first-time pilgrim knocking about to Santiago de Compostela, often detailing the physical challenges of the trail and the social meetings and intrigue with diverse peoples from around the world. Few go more deeply into the meaning of the road, how it transforms a person, and that it is woven with old mysteries. Those narratives that do capture these latter qualities, as does The Way of the Wild Goose, also are the most read, reread, and talked about, and popular narratives.
