Описание: Beautifully crafted moments from a faraway place, equal parts travelogue and love sonnet. Tom Dooley, Editor of Eclectica Magazine In TALES OF CHORONI, the former advertising creative director has left his fast-paced career in New York for a remote colonial village on the coast of Venezuela, set below a mountainous cloud forest and isolated from the press of modern life. In this tropic paradise, he shares adventures with characters like La Ballena (The Whale), a huge mechanic who can fix your car for next to nothing if he can just fit under it; El Zorro (The Fox), an old fisherman who serves up world-class cuisine in a humble surfside shack; the Shaman of El Mam n, who cures gallstones and shingles with common herbs and special incantations; and a man named Blanco, who can teach you new ways to scam friends and strangers alike.    Travel with him to settlements you can only reach by sea and hike up mountain trails where people live as they did centuries ago, without electricity or running water, with only burros and mules for transportation. Motor by launch up the mighty Orinoco to the remote Yanomami village of Platanal to rescue an Indian shot in the chest with a poisoned arrow, and ride a horse across the Andes to the hidden village of Los Nevados. Little adventures in the middle of nowhere.
