If you are an urbanite who has spent his life locked in four walls, it is logical that now you want to go out into the country. If you work all your life sitting, it is very logical that you want to walk. If you stay in insane and sad offices, you want to breathe clean air. If your days are filled meeting with colleagues and clients, now you want to enjoy solitude. If you must achieve absurd objectives, you want to do something where the end is not a goal. Now you can say goodbye to all that, and alone or accompanied, go to the Camino de Santiago. Buen Camino ! Index 1.

My own notes Preface The Way of Saint James, also called the 'Camino de Santiago' or the 'Camino', is a crazy but rewarding adventure. For readers who are considering it, this book will be a help to make an informed decision and then plan it well. To do the Camino is to walk, nothing more. Walking is not running or climbing, but neither is it strolling at the mall. This guide is based on my experience of having completed the Camino from Roncesvalles to Santiago de Compostela walking about 500 miles in 35 days, and having finished better than I was at the beginning. Buen Camino ! About the author Juan Martín-García is Spanish, 60 years old, author a recognized book over the History of Spain. He has done the Camino only once, he is not a walking expert, nor an athlete. His motivation for doing the Camino was to understand why hundreds of thousands of people not only start, but complete every year a 500-mile journey. An essential book for pilgrims
映画・ドラマ版との違い・考察
本作は、都会の閉塞感に抗い「歩く」ことで自己を奪還する、魂の再生の記録です。歴史家の筆致による実用性と、一人の人間が五百マイルの果てに掴んだ「目的のない生」への賛美が、読む者の胸を熱く焦がします。 映像化により、巡礼路の広大な美は眼前に再現されましたが、原作には映像では捉えきれない内省の深みと沈黙の重みが息づいています。視覚の躍動とテキストの哲学が響き合うとき、読者は単なる観客を超え、聖地へと踏み出す一人の巡礼者となるのです。
