  Outrageously irresponsible and undeniably liberating, Simon Gandolfi's OLD MAN ON A BIKE will fire the imaginations of every traveller, young or old. 
   
  At 73 years old, Simon Gandolfi sets off from Veracruz on the Gulf of Mexico to embark on a five and a half month journey culminating at 'the end of the world', Ushuaia in Tierra del Fuego. For Simon this is a journey of discovery. Leaving behind the safety and sanctuary of friends and family, he is truly alone but along the way he meets and talks with rich and poor, old and young, officials and professionals, agricultural and industrial workers. This expertly written travelogue reveals not only the stories of those he meets, and his own, but also that of Latin America, its attitudes to itself, to the USA and the UK in the aftermath of the Iraq war and the realities of the poverty and endemic corruption throughout much of this continent.

  A "hauntingly effective" surrealist travel memoir about the mysterious transformations that may lurk inside us all (Library Journal, starred review). 
   
   
   
  Venice, 2020. As a pandemic rages across the globe, Zito Madu finds himself in a nearly deserted city, its walls and basilicas humming with strange magic. As he wanders a haunted landscape, we see him twist further into his own past: his family's difficult immigration from Nigeria to Detroit, his troubled relationship with his father, the sporadic joys of daily life and solitude, his experiences with migration, poverty, foreignness, racism, and his own rage and regret. But as it is with all labyrinths, after finding its center, will he come away unscathed, or will he transform into the gripping, fantastical monstrousness that's out to consume him whole? 
   
   
   
  With nods to Italo Calvino and Jorge Luis Borges, this surrealist debut memoir takes us into the labyrinth of memory and the monsters lurking there.

  With the quick wit and dry humour of a true Irishman, David "Irish" Anderson documents his epic eighteen-month motorcycle adventure from Ireland to South Africa in this captivating memoir. 
  What begins as a lofty idea in a pub becomes a reality after six years of planning when Irish and his wife purposefully set out with their two heavily loaded motorcycles. Somewhere along the way, Irish loses his wife, but amidst the heartbreak, turmoil, and challenges on the long and often bumpy road, he gains a whole new perspective on life. 
  Follow his exciting journey as he does what you're absolutely not supposed to do when you see and elephant, involuntarily exfoliates himself during a desert sandstorm, and receives plenty of well-meaning but impractical advice from strange characters. 
  With a telling eye for detail, Irish artfully captures the characteristics of each country he visits, the encounters with people he meets, the difficulties he faces, and the joy of discovery that comes with travelling to unfamiliar places, providing the listener with a rich tapestry of experience.

  YOU KNOW WHAT'S FRUSTRATING? YOU'VE BEEN STUDYING ITALIAN FOR WEEKS - THEN YOU MEET AN ACTUAL ITALIAN AND... BLANK 
  You know your verbs. You've memorized vocabulary lists. You can conjugate in your sleep. 
  Then you meet an actual Italian person and your mind goes completely empty. You stumble. You freeze. And that conversation you pictured so perfectly in your head? Yeah, it's not happening. 
  Sound familiar? 
  Here's the thing - you're not bad at Italian. The problem is how you learned it. Most courses teach you ABOUT Italian without actually teaching you to SPEAK Italian. It's like learning to swim by reading a book about water. 
  This game-changing audiobook by Language Mastery fixes exactly this problem. 
  WHAT MAKES THIS ACTUALLY WORK: 
  ✓ 100+ real conversations recorded by native Italians - not textbook Italian, but the stuff people actually say in Rome, Milan, and Naples 
  ✓ Two-speed audio: Listen slow when you're learning, then speed up as you get comfortable - your brain adapts naturally 
  ✓ Story-based learning that doesn't feel like studying - you'll get so caught up in what happens next, you won't notice you're absorbing Italian 
  ✓ Quick comprehension checks to make sure you're following along 
  ✓ Practical vocabulary you'll actually use - real phrases for real situations 
  THE DIFFERENCE IN 30 DAYS: 
  ✓ You'll stop translating in your head and just speak 
  ✓ Native speakers won't make you repeat yourself three times 
  ✓ Words stick because you learned them in context, not from lists 
  ✓ You'll actually enjoy learning 
  No more grammar drills. No more feeling stupid when you can't remember a word. No more rehearsing conversations in your head that never happen. 
  Just real Italian. The kind people actually speak. 
  READY TO FINALLY SOUND LIKE YOURSELF IN ITALIAN? GRAB THE AUDIOBOOK NOW.
