The Idiot, following an early afternoon interview with KALW radio in San Francisco, will display over 175 photographs illustrating his 20-year-walk around the Mediterranean Sea at the Sausalito (CA) Library on Thursday, June 6, at 7 pm. The slideshow will serve as a backdrop to his discussion of the genesis, evolution and execution of his peripatetic midlife project and the trilogy of The Idiot and the Odyssey travel narratives he wrote about it.
Here are some of the just-selected photographs that you can view a few steps away from San Quentin State Prison.
