Synopsis
There's a question no country answers the same way twice: what would you save, if you could only save one thing?
This book traveled through more than sixty countries looking for that answer, and found something it didn't expect: it's almost never what shows up on the postcards. It's the payroll of workers that survived the burning of a Persian empire. It's the ship that sank in front of an entire city and is now its country's most visited landmark. It's a leap ritual, no net, that a foreigner copied from the world and patented as his own.
Written with the rigor of an investigation and the pulse of a poem, every line in this book holds a verifiable fact: a date, a name, a number that survives any question. No airport-gift-shop folklore here. Just countries seen up close, until the wonder shows up on its own.
The book closes where no country can reach: with the only object built by human hands that carries a fragment of every one of them, traveling right now nine billion miles from Earth, with no certainty anyone will ever find it.
An atlas to read one place at a time. Or the whole world at once.
