Comprises the accounts of four journeys taken at different times in the author's life.
One of Germany’s most illustrious poets, Heinrich Heine is also celebrated for his idiosyncratic and vibrant prose. Heine’s lyrical, humorous, and revealing vision in these four accounts of his voyages in Italy and Germany raises Travel Pictures into the transcendent realm of great journey literature. Over one hundred poems pepper the text.

Heinrich Heine (1797–1856) was one of the most significant German Romantic poets. Many of his poems were set to music by Schubert, Mendelssohn, and Brahms.

Peter Wortsman is an author and translator. His translations from the German include work by Robert Musil, Peter Altenberg, and Adelbert von Chamisso.
