With a Hemingway travel project testing his confidence, doubts creeping in about his abilities as a writer, the death of his great friend George Harrison, and the last of his children leaving home, the dawn of the twenty-first century sees Michael at his most reflective yet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOver the next ten years, we watch through Michael's eyes as the world reels from the successive shocks of September 11, the 7\/7 bombings, and the global financial crash. With the warmth and gentle empathy that have endeared him to millions of fans over the decades, Michael documents the day-to-day detail of living in a world buffeted by such powerful winds of change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAmidst this turbulence, one thing remains constant: Michael's irrepressible curiosity and thirst for adventure. These diaries follow his life as he comes and goes through the filming of four blockbuster travel documentaries - \u003ci\u003eHemingway Adventure\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eSahara\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHimalaya\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eNew Europe\u003c\/i\u003e - and reaches the peak of his fame as a beloved TV traveller. And five years on from the last of his children flying the nest, Michael embarks on his greatest adventure yet: becoming a besotted grandfather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThere and Back\u003c\/i\u003e is a new window into the world of Michael Palin, one that reveals more than ever the strength and succour he draws from those constant supporting structures in his life: his family, his friendships, and, of course, the Pythons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hachette New Zealand Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46208996180204,"sku":"9781474612760","price":30.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781474612760.jpg?v=1740302096","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.pro\/products\/there-and-back-by-michael-palin-9781474612760","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
