Wood's journey takes him to the places that shaped Du Fu's secular philosophical vision, offering a fresh perspective on the poet's legacy. The result is a beautifully illustrated book that not only explores the life and work of Du Fu, but also sheds light on the enduring relevance of his poetry in our troubled times.
