Four world cities seen through the eyes of Jan Morris. Jan Morris's books include works of history, travel, autobiography and fiction. Here she is represented by essays about four of the world's great cities - Delhi, Manhattan, Sydney and Vienna - each from a different continent, each described in a different mood and with a different technique. They are taken from her collection Among the Cities, also published in Penguin.

Jan Morris

Jan Morris was born in 1926, of a Welsh father and an English mother. She spent the last years of her life with her partner, Elizabeth Morris, in the top left-hand corner of Wales, between the mountains and the sea. Her books include Coronation Everest, Venice, the Pax Britannica trilogy and Conundrum. She was also the author of six books about cities and countries, two autobiographical books, several volumes of collected travel essays and the unclassifiable Trieste and the Meaning of Nowhere. In 2018 she was recognised for her outstanding contribution to travel writing by the Edward Stanford Travel Writing Awards, and published In My Mind's Eye: A Thought Diary.
