Italian journalist and writer (1938–2004), known for reportage and travel writing from Asia and for reflective books on death and spirituality.

Born 1938, died 2004. Longtime correspondent in Asia for Der Spiegel. Authored books including 'Un Altro Giro Di Giostra' and 'La fine è il mio inizio'. He faced a serious illness (cancer) late in life, a subject of his later writing.

Reviews discuss Terzani's travels in Asia, his confrontation with illness and death, and his conversational book with his son Folco. Writing blends reportage, memoir and spiritual reflection. The reception in the provided reviews is thoughtful and generally positive.

For:Readers of travel literature, journalism, memoirs, and spirituality interested in Asia and reflections on death.

 To make it short: the book is a long and passionate dialogue/confrontation between two (sometimes the cat is there too, but it doesn't actively participate in the debate) with his son Folco, with whom Tiziano retraces his life and activity as a "journalist" - although it is hinted at several times that he never truly felt such - especially his last bequest, not only literary.
