Our real-life escapes may have slowed down temporarily, but our sense of adventure doesn't have to-thanks to the globe-traipsing lens of literature. Reading offers the possibility to carry us around the world in one sitting-all sans passport and magnificently illuminated by our living room lamp. Here, the nation's top independent booksellers share their favorite travel-inspired reads, stories landing us in time zones (and periods) far and wide, be it the 1960s Italian Coast or 19th-century France.
