In this witty, wandering travelogue, Geoff Dyer drifts through cities, deserts, and festivals, turning half-hearted journeys and misadventures into the occasional accidental insight.

From the canals of Amsterdam to the temples of Cambodia, from the streets of Rome to the dust-choked spectacle of Burning Man, Geoff Dyer drifts, meanders, and sometimes flounders, finding glimpses of calm, clarity, and occasionally wisdom.

Yoga for People Who Can't Be Bothered to Do It explores Dyer's fascination with landscapes, cities, and human oddities--festivals, ruins, roadside curiosities, and the stories we attach to them. Along the way, he considers the gap between expectation and experience, the curious ways we try (and fail) to improve ourselves, and how wandering, however half-heartedly, can sharpen awareness of the world, of time, and of ourselves.

Written in Dyer's intimate, slyly funny, and reflective voice, this book is a travelogue of misadventures, fleeting revelations, and the kind of self-improvement that doesn't require mats, meditation, or much effort at all.
