Summary
Wild cities
Werner Herzog's thought "Only cities are truly wild" was chosen as the motto of this book. It contains travelogues from New York, Gaza, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Minsk, Chicago, Bangkok and Istanbul. But these are not classic travelogues whose goal is to entertain you and possibly convey some new information. These are travelogues that should reveal to you not only the face, but also the reverse side of a city, these are travelogues that will show you what these cities often hide from themselves, let alone from tourists. These are travelogues that rightly bear the title "Wild Cities". Lazar Pašćanović, the editor and initiator of this collection, worked with all the authors for a long time, sent them travelogues for refinement, polished them, encouraged and criticized them when necessary and in the end got an unusual result - an incredible wandering collection of texts that represents a snapshot of the planet at this moment with all its good and bad sides.
