Walk in the footsteps of the characters from your favorite books, poems and songs, with the new Walking Fiction app.
Jack, Chicago, USA
"We used Walking Fiction in Paris, France, to learn about Ernest Hemingway—one of the greatest writers of the 20th century. We walked the streets of his 1964 novel, A Moveable Feast, and we sat in Café Les Deux Magots on Boulevard Saint Germain while we were reading parts of the book. Hemingway used to sit there when he lived in Paris in the 1920s."
Marco, Rome, Italy
"Last year, we visited the real Penny Lane in Liverpool, England, from the Beatles song, Penny Lane, by songwriters Paul McCartney and John Lennon. The lyrics(歌词) of the song were written about that road because Paul and John used to meet at a bus terminal there when they were young. "
Lucy, Dublin, Ireland
"We used Walking Fiction to see a different side of Dublin, Ireland. Today, we’re imagining it's 16th June, 1904, and we're walking the streets of Dublin, just like Leopold Bloom, James Joyce's most famous character from his book, Ulysses. With this app, ordinary events in fiction are really brought to life."
Ann, London, UK
"We visited Hampshire, England, the home of Jane Austen and the imaginary heroines from her books, such as Elizabeth Bennet from Pride and Prejudice. We were thinking about the weddings in Austen's books when we finished her church, St. Nicholas. Jane Austen's house in Chawton was turned into a museum and we finished our tour there. It was a great day!"
