"These books are so rich and engrossing that it is rewarding to
read them even when one is stuck at home." * The TLS *
"Few travel guides are confident enough to tell the stories of a
destination's complex realities as well as those of their beauty.
[The Passenger] has a strong focus on storytelling, with pages
given over to a mix of essays, playlists and sideways glances at
subcultures and thorny urban issues." * The Stack *
"Half-magazine, half-book . . . think of [The Passenger] as an
erudite and literary travel equivalent to National Geographic, with
stunning photography and illustration and fascinating writing about
place." * Independent.ie (Best series of the year - 2021) *
"The Passenger readers will find none of the typical travel guide
sections on where to eat or what sights to see. Consider the books,
rather, more like a literary vacation--the kind you can take
without braving a long flight in the time of Covid-19." *
Publisher's Weekly *
"Fresh and diverting, informative and topical without being slight
or ephemeral [...] This supremely well-edited combination of
current affairs, journalism, commentary, and fun facts is perfect
for our pause-button moment." * Australian Financial Review (Best
Books of the Year) *
Tremendously eclectic and classily produced . . . each volume gets
under the skin of a country or a city in a multifaceted way that
feels essential in these times of narrowing national horizons." *
The Bookseller *
