  • "On memories of innumerable train journeys of an American travel writer and novelist."
  • "First published more than thirty years ago, Paul Theroux's strange, unique, and hugely entertaining railway odyssey has become a modern classic of travel literature. Here Theroux recounts his early adventures on an unusual grand continental tour. Asia's fabled trains -- the Orient Express, the Khyber Pass Local, the Frontier Mail, the Golden Arrow to Kuala Lumpur, the Mandalay Express, the Trans-Siberian Express -- are the stars of a journey that takes him on a loop eastbound from London's Victoria Station to Tokyo Central, then back from Japan on the Trans-Siberian. Brimming with Theroux's signature humor and wry observations, this engrossing chronicle is essential reading for both the ardent adventurer and the armchair traveler."
  • "Verslag van een treinreis van Londen via Istanboel, New Delhi, Singapore, Saigon, Tokio, Wladiwostok en Moskou terug naar Londen, waarbij de auteur veel aandacht heeft voor zijn omgeving en zijn medereizigers."
  • "About the world's greatest trains -- the Orient Express, the Khyber Pass Local, the Golden Arrow, the Mandalay Express -- from London through Europe and Asia, across the frozen vastness of Siberia."

  • "The American novelist's account of the landscapes, characters, mishaps, and adventures encountered on his grand railroad excursion from London to Tokyo and back again on such classics as the Orient, Mandalay, and Trans-Siberian Expresses."@en
  • "" From London across Europe through India and Asia, this was a trip of discovery made in the mid-seventies, a time before the West had embraced the places, peoples, food, faiths and cultures of the East. To visit the lands of The Great Railway Bazaar is an encounter with all that is truly foreign and exotic."--Cover."
  • "Fasciné par les trains, P. Theroux conduit cette fois son lecteur vers l'Orient : d'Istanbul à Delhi, puis à Calcutta, Saïgon ou Kuala Lumpur avant de regagner Londres en passant par Moscou. Périple rythmé par l'imprévu, le bizarre."
  • "Reisverslag met veel anekdotes en sterke verhalen."
