«A cien millas de Manhattan» is Guillermo Fesser's travel book, published by Punto de Lectura in paperback (496 pages, in Spanish).
Guillermo Fesser settles in Rhinebeck, a hundred miles from Manhattan, and from there portrays an America far from clichés. The book interweaves stories of neighbors such as a runner or a subway musician with the passing of seasons, salmon fishing, prairie bison and maple syrup harvesting, in a mosaic of anonymous lives.
Published on May 6, 2009, it is part of the Narrativa collection from Punto de Lectura.
It appeals to those who enjoy travel literature and character chronicles, and to readers who want to approach rural life in the United States.
