Accidentally Wes Anderson: Adventures
Release date: October 31, 2024
A brand-new visual odyssey from Accidentally Wes Anderson, authorised by the legendary filmmaker, taking readers on stunning adventures to every continent and sharing oddly moving human tales along the way.
AWA is back with a new book full of incredible real photos that look plucked from the world of Wes Anderson – sharing dozens of idiosyncratic stories that make each place unique.
You’ll venture to Antarctica through the Drake Passage, make a stop in lesser-known Jincumbilly, Australia (where there are more platypuses than people), travel the backroads of Vermont, and drop into one of the oddest umbrella shops of London.
But no matter where or how the adventure unfolds, it’s nothing without the people who make it memorable. Here, we share the stories of communities and characters who come to life as vividly as the photos themselves.
* You’ll meet the father of American skydiving, who created the officially sanctioned centre of the world – a Californian town with a population of two.
* You’ll visit the ‘post office at the end of the world’ in Tierra del Fuego – and meet the mustachioed letter carrier who, in his free time, runs an anarchist island micronation called Redonda.
* And you’ll travel to a town in the Arctic Circle where cats are not allowed, humans cannot be buried, and a primary attraction is a doomsday vault containing the recipe for the Oreo cookie.
Thank you for exploring!
