Accidentally Wes Anderson: Adventures [Kietas viršelis]

Adventure awaits in this new visual odyssey from Accidentally Wes Anderson, taking readers on stunning trips to every continent and sharing oddly moving human tales along the way.

For lovers of travel, design, and exploration, AWA presents a brand-new collection of real-world places that seem plucked from the films of Wes Anderson, and the stories that bring each location to life.

You’ll venture to Antarctica through the treacherous Drake Passage, make a stop in lesser-known Jincumbilly, Australia (where platypuses outnumber people), discover the bridge in Wisconsin that went to nowhere, and drop into the most peculiar umbrella shop in London.

But adventure means nothing without someone to tell the tale. 
 
You’ll meet the father of American skydiving, who created the officially-sanctioned center of Earth—a California town with a population of two. You’ll visit the “post office at the end of the world”—and meet its mustachioed letter carrier, who runs an anarchist island nation in his free time. And you’ll travel to a town in the Arctic Circle where cats are prohibited, humans may not be buried, and doomsday vaults hold all we need to survive an apocalypse—including the secret recipe for the Oreo cookie. 
 
Authorized by the legendary filmmaker himself, Accidentally Wes Anderson Adventures reminds us that the world is ours to explore.


A brand-new visual odyssey from Accidentally Wes Anderson, authorized 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 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 center of the world—a California town with a population of two.
• You’ll visit the “post office at the end of the world” in Tierra del Fuego (page 000)—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!
