Iain Sinclair and his daughter travel through Peru, guided by – and in reaction to – an ill-fated colonial expedition led by his great-grandfather. The family history of a displaced Scottish highlander fades into the brutal reality of a major land grab. The historic thirst for gold and the establishment of sprawling coffee plantations leave terrible wounds on virgin territory. In Sinclair’s haunting prose, no place escapes its past, and nor can we. ‘The Gold Machine is a trip, a psychoactive expedition in compelling company.’ TLSLanguage: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 198mmItem Length: 129mmItem Width: 30mmAuthor: Iain SinclairGenre: Travel & TransportTopic: History, Society & Culture, Social SciencesRelease Year: 2022 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
