With such tantalising chapters as In Defence of Smuggling and Lunch with Homer this is a witty, eyeopening tapestry of Freya Starks writings on travel and a life spent as one of the 20th centurys most formidable adventuresses. In chronological order, spanning an extraordinary 50 years, from 1919 to 1967, Stark ranges from eloquent musings on the nature of travel, of being a woman both writer and explorer in what was then predominantly a male world and jewelbright stories from across the world Arabia to North Africa, Iran and India that captivate the reader with every sentence. There are romantic picnics under starlit skies on remote islands, meaningful moments of quiet in Mecca and Jerusalem and heartfelt accounts of encounters with a kaleidoscope of people. The Zodiac Arch resurrects lost worlds, reveals a little of the woman behind the legend and is, at heart, a magnetic read for all those under the spell of wanderlust.
