What does the presence of books in travel books reveal about both reading as well as traveling? From the evidence of Larry McMurtry 's recent short account of South Sea travel, Paradise, books do not so much accompany travel as threaten to supplant it. We can read a book anytime. We can presumably see the Marquises Islands only one time in our lives. And yet the real paradise may be the utter freedom to read that the trip releases rather than the trip itself.
