"...an engaging book: part diary, part manifesto." The Guardian A
round-the-world bicycle tour with one of the most original artists
of our day. Urban bicycling has become more popular than ever as
recession-strapped, climate-conscious city dwellers reinvent basic
transportation. In this wide-ranging memoir, artist/musician and
co-founder of Talking Heads David Byrne--who has relied on a bike
to get around New York City since the early 1980s--relates his
adventures as he pedals through and engages with some of the
world's major cities. From Buenos Aires to Berlin, he meets a range
of people both famous and ordinary, shares his thoughts on art,
fashion, music, globalization, and the ways that many places are
becoming more bike-friendly. Bicycle Diaries is an adventure on two
wheels conveyed with humor, curiosity, and humanity.
