Travels without a Donkey in the Cevennes
Norwegian title: På vandring uten esel i Cevennene
A Secular Pilgrimage
In 2017, Alexander Leborg was commissioned to translate Robert Louis Stevenson's classic Travels with a Donkey in the Cévennes. As part of his preparations, he decided to walk in the author's footsteps, and took notes along the way. He is by no means an experienced wanderer, but his reflections about life on the road are wise, enthusiastic and full of admiration for the journey Stevenson took almost 140 years earlier.
