NOW Talks with Taras Grescoe

Watch Enzo Di Matteo in conversation with Taras Grescoe to talk about his new book, Straphanger.

“A man who, beyond the age of 26, finds himself on a bus can count himself as a failure,” said Margaret Thatcher.

Self-proclaimed straphanger Taras Grescoe disagrees.

As in his book Straphanger, Taras will take you on a global journey that has him boarding high-speed trains, sparking tramways and buses. He examines the damage automobiles have caused to the world’s greatest cities and opens a discussion about how a global revolution in transportation can bring them back from the brink.

Grescoe is also author of the popular book of one seafood lover’s round-the-world quest for a truly decent – sustainable – meal, in Bottomfeeders.
