40 days on foot to Jerusalem

Ladislav Zibura has been going on walking pilgrimages since he was eighteen. However, he only became a star in the pilgrimage world in 2015, when the media started to take an interest in his story. Unlike spiritually-focused authors, he perceives pilgrimage primarily as a Kerouac-style journey. His book is a remarkable combination of hyperbole and wit, which alternates with frequent reflections on serious topics. The main theme is the author's pilgrimage to Jerusalem, which he undertook last summer. Without a map or a sense of direction, he managed to walk 1,400 kilometres across the scorching landscapes of Turkey and Israel, stand before the Wailing Wall, and experience an unforgettable adventure. His journey is a story of mistakes, remarkable encounters, lucky and unlucky coincidences, and the kindness of people all over the world. The author was motivated to write the book by the overwhelming success of his presentations, which were attended by 8,000 people in just three months. Audiences have grown fond of Ladislav Zibura for his quirky humour and great storytelling talent. For his readers, he has added a fresh journalistic style and a simple message: you should go too.
