* Meaning of the title: The intersection is the place where the road gathers, or the place where this story is divided in various directions. This situation continued to the end and Mrs Etterick asked, "Singles, please go back to Sunbury once." Mrs. Ettrick sends a mentally disabled daughter Gina to Sanbury's special agency for Christmas. She did not want her daughter to be around: their distance was far away at the station (although Mrs. Eterlik and Gina traveled to Sunbury). 'Clapham' is a word often used by Theroux (writer) in other short stories (this is not a book).

Paul Theroux has taken risks in exotic circumstances, spent 50 years worldwide in search of rich history and folklore from a distance. Well, Theroux first explored American works - the south depth in his tenth travel book. He found a contradictory place, unparalleled music, incomparable cooking, and the worst school in the country, housing and unemployment. These places in the south tend to be overlooked, attracting the attention of Theroux enthusiastic travelers.

Fifteen years ago, I read Paul Syracuse's "Ocean Island". Paul Theroux is still my favorite travel writer; he brings human touch to the trip, weaves the stories of local people, and they are trekking with people passing by. This book talks about adventures exploring the islands of Oceania, mainly from Vanuatu to Fiji, rafting in Tahiti and Hawaii, canoes, boats and so on. I was fascinated by this story, but because I had too much Oceania wallet, my wife and two children took me to the Maldives, and we took Hulhule atoll and north I explored the South Island Atoll Island. I think it is Theroux, I took a sailing course and I hope someday I can follow his waterway.

Then there were Cape Cod and Hawaiian literary travelers Paul Seruks, Mosquito Coast and Great Rail Market. He lived his life in trains and kayaks, many of them were in China, our own deep south, especially in Africa. In this week 's conversation, Theroux spread Thoreau' s view that he was born on foot than anyone else. Paul Theroux: Everyone who can read should read that stroll. It should be taught in school. This is the gospel of the environment. This is the wild gospel. It is almost mysterious, in fact it is mysterious, wild virtue, even about special ignorant virtues. When Thoreau said, "Believe in the night when forests, grass, corn grows," he explained poetry to a certain extent, and he used religious words to talk about wildlife. Think about how far he is when he says "wildlife is the protection of the world".
