Where do our things come from?

Delivery routes around the world.

By which route does the nut travel to the chocolate cream? How does the oil get into the cuddly toy? How many hands does a chair pass through before it reaches our table? With her unmistakable attention to detail, Julia Dürr travels behind our everyday objects in this large-format nonfiction book: These objects - and the raw materials they are made of - have travelled incredibly long distances. Along the way, they pass exciting places: the cargo ship, the freight station, the high-shelf warehouse outside the city, and even the shopping bag in which we carry them home.
