• About 'The Idiot Boy Who Flew'...

 



THE IDIOT BOY WHO FLEW by Graham Reid (NZ$24.95)

    Award-winning journalist and travel writer Graham Reid explores the high roads and low life of travel; concluding with a dark journey through history, literature, faith and Southern Italy -- in search of a saint who could fly. Funny, moving and insightful stories from an astute and wry observer of human nature who has an ear for language and an empathy for his characters.

Graham Reid's first book 'Postcards From Elsewhere' was awarded the Whitcoulls Travel Book of the Year for 2006.

"As delightful as you'd expect from such a skilled storyteller... marvellously accurate snapshots of people and places from elsewhere; pictures in words which amuse and inspire, entertain and inform."
