En la década de los cincuenta, Ryszard Kapuściński, un joven reportero polaco, se encuentra recorriendo su país natal con el anhelo de cruzar fronteras. Aunque no logra viajar a Checoslovaquia, su periódico lo envía a la India. Para este viaje, lleva consigo un ejemplar de la 'Historia' de Heródoto, que se convierte en su compañero inseparable y una influencia crucial en su desarrollo profesional y personal. 'Viajes con Heródoto' es un libro inclasificable que combina elementos de reportaje, estudio etnográfico y libro de viajes, rindiendo homenaje a Heródoto como el primer reportero y destacando la importancia de conocer otras culturas.
Ryszard Kapuściński was a Polish journalist, photographer and author. He received many prestigious awards and was considered a candidate for the Nobel Prize in Literature. Kapuściński's personal journals in book form attracted both controversy and admiration for blurring the conventions of reportage with the allegory and magical realism of literature. He was the Communist-era Polish Press Agency's only correspondent in Africa during decolonization, and also worked in South America and Asia. Between 1956 and 1981 he reported on 27 revolutions and coups, until he was fired because of his support for the pro-democracy Solidarity movement in his native country. He was celebrated by other practitioners of the genre. The acclaimed Italian reportage-writer Tiziano Terzani, Colombian writer Gabriel García Márquez, and Chilean writer Luis Sepúlveda accorded him the title "Maestro".
