Review
Idle Traveller.
A winding road feeds turn after turn - Some soft curves, some harsh corners; Sometimes leading to nowhere. Tales differ from mouth to mouth. Ear to ear they change yet again. The answer to perception vs. reality, is neither here nor there.
Toe to toe, the tall tales grow, Blow by blow and woe by woe - Of love conquering all, And wars promising peace. See for yourself; eye to eye. See yourself; live and die. What you see is what you get, and what you don't, you won't forget.
Kino is a traveller. A witness. A survivor. Driven to discover the eternal destination.
For centuries, those in search of self-discovery and knowledge of the world have hit the road in furtherance of those quests. Young Kino, along with the talking motorcycle Hermes, has the same goal: to travel the world, and observe and learn from its different cultures. Staying exactly three days in each location, Kino and Hermes learn much about the world and themselves. Along the way, the pair also discover the joy inherent in a trip, realizing that the experience of the journey--and the diversions that it brings--matters much more than the destination. Imaginative, thought-provoking, and sometimes disturbing.
