Read before leaving, reread upon return
POLLEN brings together fifteen books that all talk about the same thing: going out. You follow legendary trails with Cam Honan, a year of cycling from Amsterdam to Singapore with Martijn Doolaard, the climbing scene with Julie Ellison, motorcycle routes, converted vehicles, and days spent below zero. One title leaves the road to tell the stories of lasting crafts: forging, weaving, sake brewing. All are in English, most printed in full color, in large formats that let the photography breathe.
