Overview

Away From It All: An Escapologist's Notebook is a book written by Cedric Belfrage. It is a collection of essays and reflections that explore the idea of escapism and the desire to escape from the pressures of modern life. Belfrage draws on his own experiences as a writer, activist, and traveler to offer insights into the benefits and drawbacks of seeking refuge in different forms of escape, such as travel, nature, art, and literature. The book is divided into chapters that cover various topics, including the allure of remote places, the importance of solitude and contemplation, the role of imagination in escape, and the dangers of addiction and self-delusion. Belfrage's writing is thoughtful, engaging, and often humorous, as he shares his observations and musings on the human condition and the quest for meaning and freedom. Overall, Away From It All is a thought-provoking and inspiring book that encourages readers to embrace the spirit of escapism and explore new ways of living and being.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
