Around The World In 80 Girls

***Warning*** This is not the 2012 bestselling travel book "Around the World in 80 Girls - The Epic 3 Year Trip of a backpacking Casanova" This is the screenplay based on that book in original screenplay size. Leaving his small country of The Netherlands, Neil Skywalker took a risk and embarked on a three-year, 42-country experimental excursion. With a shy demeanor and limited budget, Skywalker overcame his approach anxiety, navigated foreign countries, and most importantly, learned to close the deal on hot women across the globe. After completing his epic tale of adventure, love, hard-learned lessons-and yes, even heartbreak, Neil wrote a bestselling book and a screenplay based on his popular travel adventure for men. Skywalker's next endeavor took him from Holland to Hollywood in what turned out to be a short and dramatic tale of hopes and dreams, golden but broken promises, nice offers and paychecks but no movie.

A transporting and illuminating voyage around the globe, through classic and modern literary works that are in conversation with one another and with the world around them *Featured in the Chicago Tribune's Great 2021 Fall Book Preview * One of Smithsonian Magazine's Ten Best Books About Travel of 2021* Inspired by Jules Verne’s hero Phileas Fogg, David Damrosch, chair of Harvard University’s department of comparative literature and founder of Harvard’s Institute for World Literature, set out to counter a pandemic’s restrictions on travel by exploring eighty exceptional books from around the globe. Following a literary itinerary from London to Venice, Tehran and points beyond, and via authors from Woolf and Dante to Nobel Prize–winners Orhan Pamuk, Wole Soyinka, Mo Yan, and Olga Tokarczuk, he explores how these works have shaped our idea of the world, and the ways in which the world bleeds into literature. To chart the expansive landscape of world literature today, Damrosch explores how writers live in two very different worlds: the world of their personal experience and the world of books that have enabled great writers to give shape and meaning to their lives. In his literary cartography, Damrosch includes compelling contemporary works as well as perennial classics, hard-bitten crime fiction as well as haunting works of fantasy, and the formative tales that introduce us as children to the world we’re entering. Taken together, these eighty titles offer us fresh perspective on enduring problems, from the social consequences of epidemics to the rising inequality that Thomas More designed Utopia to combat, as well as the patriarchal structures within and against which many of these books’ heroines have to struggle—from the work of Murasaki Shikibu a millennium ago to Margaret Atwood today. Around the World in 80 Books is a global invitation to look beyond ourselves and our surroundings, and to see our world and its literature in new ways.
