In Tropical Lands: Conversations with Iain Sinclair about The Gold Machine
A father/daughter journey into the Amazon. I have always been haunted by my great great grandfather Arthur Sinclair. These podcasts are the story of a journey to the Peruvian Amazon with my father, retracing Arthur’s steps and his expedition of 1891. This journey inspired Iain Sinclair’s book, “The Gold Machine” and Grant Gee’s film of the same name. These are the conversations we had along the way, with each other and those we met, as we discovered the forgotten legacy of the British Peruvian Corporation, and heard first hand from the Asheninka tribes who live there still. Sometimes the past is a place you can visit. First episode to be uploaded on 2nd September. Edited by Anonymous Bosch
