Book excerpt: This anthology presents a selection of texts by Peter K. Wehrli, representing over forty years of writing and traveling. It covers diverse experiences, from the author's early relationships with the avant-garde Swiss Dadaists in Zurich to a conversation in Brazil that is surprisingly revealing of Wehrli's homeland. While meandering through the vignettes that follow, readers will savor the author's new perspective, one that reawakens the child inside us and encourages us to view the world as if it were for the very first time.
