about the book
Dive Into Adventure: Discover the Thrill of Crisis, Cracks & Coral
If you love to travel, you’ve probably devoured a fair number of travel books. We are not talking about travel guides, no, but rather travelogues—those books in which globetrotters, adventurers, explorers, or simply tourists recount their experiences. Crisis, Cracks & Coral is simultaneously an adventure novel, a modern travelogue, and a personal journal. It’s fiction and reality, past and present. It’s emotion and reflection, analysis and comparison, because travel is always, in some way, about contrasts.
Tales That Inspire Wanderlust
For those looking for travel literature to unwind in a hammock, find inspiration, and dream about incredible landscapes and uncanny environments, Crisis, Cracks & Coral is an outstanding book for any traveller seeking stories of wondrous places and beautiful backdrops. It features more than 30 travel stories by Keith Sinclair about his remarkable journeys in 65 countries; for example, in China, he narrowly escapes a snakebite and survives a crash-landing in a flight simulator. Sinclair narrates hilarious, unanticipated, and thought-provoking moments from his trips. The chapters can be read independently; altogether, they create a story of resilience and endless opportunities.
Laugh, Reflect, Explore: The Wild Spirit of Adventure
Literature and humour have had a very close relationship throughout history, and together they form a genre in which the author creates comical environments, often with a subversive intent, where the best weapons are mockery and laughter. Blending wit, cultural insight, and a sense of adventure, this book is for anyone who loves travel, true stories, or lively tales of the unexpected. Crisis, Cracks & Coral is the best expression of human curiosity, that which drives us to explore the universe and keep walking to find out what lies around the next bend in the road. Keith Sinclair elicits a knowing smile and the occasional laugh from readers. A delightful, entertaining, and informative story that will leave you wanting more.
