Comprising five conceptual journeys generated by Google Maps, 'The Road to N'Djamena' proposes a new kind of psychogeography for the post-internet age: one which rejects the increasingly banal and ubiquitous motifs of conventional travel writing and re-introduces a world with (almost) unlimited possibilities. From Blaise Cendrars' 'Transsiberien' to Julio Cortazar's trawl through the rest-stops of French autoroutes, the avant-garde has long sought to expand upon the traditional definition of 'journey'. The Road to N'Djamena finds new wildernesses within its paratexts, inviting its readers to contemplate the still-impossibly-exotic without ever leaving their seats.
