Summary/Abstract: Nicolas Bouvier’s work represents for his audience a continuous invitation to travel, a perpetual stimulation of imagination and interest in what is to be presented by the subject – narrator during his initiatory journey. Nicolas Bouvier takes the color out of the sphere of what is common and ordinary by giving them other valence and other connotations, thus managing to capture the reads` attention and keep them with him throughout the entire narrative.Through his novels, Nicolas Bouvier presents the readers with paintings of rare beauty and highlights the spiritual aspects, the richness of soul of the narrator subject, the material part remaining in the background.
