Book Synopsis Journey to the Land of the Real by : Victor Segalen

Download or read book Journey to the Land of the Real written by Victor Segalen and published by Atlas Press (GB). This book was released on 2016 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Victor Segalen (1878-1919) was a doctor, a traveller (principally in Polynesia and China), and above all else, a great poet. An admirer especially of Gauguin and Rimbaud, the journey undertaken in this, his last and most important work, is that between the imagined and the real: 'neither a poem about a journey, nor the travel diary of a wanderer's dream'. Journey to the Land of the Real is the summation of the author's life as both traveller and poet, and a summation that is all the more surprising since he could know nothing of his imminent and mysterious death.
