"Isabella Bird's 'Unbeaten Tracks in Japan': The struggle to find a competent guide (Pt. 3)"

"Most [candidates] had evidently imagined no more than the role of an interpreter for a pleasure tour. Yet Bird's purpose was altogether different -- a journey through the northeastern provinces and onward to Hokkaido, a venture that was, in no small measure, perilous and undertaken at the risk of her life."

Pour mon #vendredilecture un récit de voyage au féminin. Cela se passe au Colorado en 1873. Isabella Bird transcrit tout ce qu'elle observe et ressent dans les lettres envoyées à sa sœur Henrietta. Elle est fine observatrice, son regard reste marqué par le racisme à l'égard des Amérindiens, elle n'a peur de rien et a soif de découvrir la beauté du monde.
Pour le lectorat, une immersion dans un autre temps, un autre espace, à travers le regard décalé d'une belle plume.
