Border Soup: Dispatches on Hunger, Sound and the Edges of Belonging - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

What do a street meal in Bamako, a pirate radio in Tbilisi, and a bowl of soup on a broken ferry have in common?
They all feed you - in more ways than one.

In Border Soup, LD Thompson blends food writing, soundscape, and travel memoir into a genre-defying collection of dispatches from the world’s quiet edges. From backstreet cafés in Manila to half-forgotten train stations in Ukraine, these vivid, poetic fragments capture what it means to eat with strangers, listen to static at midnight, and feel at home in places that don’t exist on any map.

Whether it’s a rave in the Colombian jungle or a late shift in a Tokyo alleyway, each story hums with atmosphere and heart. This is travel for those who drift, food for those who remember, and music for those who listen with their whole body.

Perfect for readers who loved:

• The Art of Travel by Alain de Botton

• Kitchen Confidential by Anthony Bourdain

• The Lonely City by Olivia Laing

• or anyone who’s ever tuned in to a half-lost radio station just to feel less alone
