THE WAY TO TIMBUKTU
by
Adam Darius
"Enchanting... an in-depth pictorial history of a peerless mime, who travels not only through time and space, but into the realms of the soul... an exotic journey that plumbs the core of human experience."
Riad Ismat,
Syria's leading playwright, Damascus
"Adam Darius walks in another world, a world of idiots and also wise men."
Zhuwandoon,
Kabul, Afghanistan
With his stages extending from Java to Madagascar and from the Philippines to Brazil, this most universal of mime artists continues to move audiences throughout the world.
Further to his unequalled expressive powers, Adam Darius is also a prolific writer. In this profusely illustrated collection of his poems, plays, essays and ballets, the author shares with us the ebb and flow of his sometimes turbulent, sometimes serene experience.
"Adam Darius is one of the most exceptional talents of the 20th century."
BBC World Service, London
In The Way To Timbuktu, the reader, through a vast assortment of stunning photographs and text, retraces the global odyssey of a legendary artist.
