Quote

All journeys are return journeys. The man who says, “i’ve got a wife and kids” is far from home; at home he speaks of Japan. But he does not know – how could he? – that the scenes changing in the train window from Victoria Station to Tokyo Central are nothing compared to the change in himself, and travel writing, which cannot but be droll at the outset, moves from journalism to fiction, arriving promptly as the Kodama Echo at autobiography. From there any further travel makes a beeline to confession, the embarassed monologue in a deserted bazar. The anonymous hotel room in a strange city, I was thinking – the pillow still over my head – drives one into the confessional mode.”
Paul Theroux, The great Railway Bazar.
