One of the most successful, influential and acclaimed travel books of recent years. At the age of twenty-two, William Dalrymple left his college in Cambridge to travel to the ruins of Kublai Khan's stately pleasure dome in Xanadu. This is an account of a quest which took him and his companions across the width of Asia, along dusty, forgotten roads, through villages and cities full of unexpected hospitality and wildly improbable escapades, to Coleridge's Xanadu itself. At once funny and knowledgeable, In Xanadu is in the finest tradition of British travel writing. Told with an exhilarating blend of eloquence, wit, poetry and delight, it is already established as a classic of its kind.

一月中下旬 時候,“忽左忽右”放齣瞭一期鄭詩亮同馮潔音的對談,聊瞭很多寫中國的外籍作傢,以及他們的作品。那期節目是我播客收聽史上最忙碌的一期,一邊聽一邊種草,不亦樂乎。 聽罷節目,望著長長的“想讀”清單,我當即決定從威廉·達爾林普爾的這本《在上都》(In Xanadu)...
評分嚮來喜讀威廉•達爾林普(William Dalrymple)的印度史,例如White Mughals,The City of Djinns和The Last Mughal,尤其是最後一部作品,寫得細緻入微,分寸恰到好處,同時文筆生動流暢,實在是比較難得。於是便購得他的首部著作《In Xanadu》,在初鞦周末的早晨,癱在躺椅...

A great early piece from WD, provoking the desire to explore the mysterious anecdote of Marco Polo and Kublai Khan, connected with narratives of historical events along the road. Besides, the background of 1980s in China reminds me of the embarrassing good old days. Conclusion? Love it.
