Book excerpt: 'Neither a travel book, nor a vast prose poem, nor a history, nor philosophy, nor voyage of discovery, but often all at once' Independent on Sunday WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY RICHARD FLANAGAN In this fascinating journey Claudio Magris, whose knowledge is encyclopaedic and whose curiosity limitless, guides his reader from the source of the Danube in the Bavarian hills through Austro-Hungary and the Balkans to the Black Sea. Along the way he raises the ghosts that inhabit the houses and monuments - from Ovid to Kafka and Canetti - and in so doing sets his finger on the pulse of Central Europe, the vital crucible of a culture that draws on influences of East and West, of Christendom and Islam.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Water Lily on the Danube: Being a Brief Account of the Perils of a Pair-Oar During a Voyage From Lambeth to Pesth It is to the kindness with which the journal of our travels on that occasion was received by the public, that they are indebted for the infliction of this second series. While we were at Wurzburg last year, a paragraph appeared in a newspaper there, informing its readers that five Englishmen had come from London in a little boat, and were going through the danube-main Canal, and down the Danube to the Black Sea. We had no thoughts whatever of doing this, but it struck us that on some future occasion, we might go by that route as far as Vienna, or perhaps Pesth; below which town, for some four hundred miles, the Danube scenery is flat and uninteresting.
