Left Beyond the Horizon
A Land Rover Odyssey
In 2002 Christopher Many set off on his second overland journey: a round-the-world voyage with an ailing Land Rover he purchased in Scotland for USD 1000 (or GBP 700). He named the Landy Matilda, and for the next eight years, they travelled through 100 countries. His bestselling book about this Odyssey, Left Beyond the Horizon, was published in 2015.

Christopher Many brach 2002 zu seiner zweiten Overlandreise auf: eine Weltumrundung in einem alten Land Rover, den er in Schottland für umgerechnet 1000 Euro erworben hatte und Matilda taufte. Zusammen bereisten sie acht Jahre lang rund 100 Länder. Sein Buch über diese Reise, Hinter dem Horizont links, erschien 2011 und wurde zum Bestseller.

À ESQUERDA DEPOIS DO HORIZONTE
Uma odisseia de Land Rover - 8 Anos – 100 Países – 1.667 Avarias
Entre as Terras Altas da Escócia, castigado pelos elementos, está um Land Rover abandonado. Não parece ser o veículo ideal para uma viagem ao redor do mundo, mas Christopher Many acredita o contrário. Ele tem o sonho de embarcar em uma odisseia pelas terras congeladas da Sibéria, pela América do Norte e do Sul, e depois pelo continente africano – equipado com pouco mais que um passaporte, um cartão de crédito e um tanque cheio de gasolina. Seu objetivo? “Explorar novos mundos estranhos, audaciosamente indo aonde nenhum Land Rover jamais esteve.” Christopher retorna de sua jornada por 100 países oito anos depois – exausto, mordido por uma cobra e infectado com malária – mas com um caminhão carregado de memórias queridas e uma compreensão maior do mundo em que vivemos. Como um léxico sofisticado que trata igualmente de assuntos globais e ao mesmo tempo expõe uma crônica de viagem espiritualmente inteligente, seu livro apresenta uma imagem vívida das alegrias e agonias das viagens pelo mundo.
