Read the paragraph from "Rivers and Stories," Part 1.
Traveling in the world, even now, we confront, one way or another, the human history of rivers. Several times in
the last few years I've arrived in a foreign city, and gone to sleep in a hotel room, and awakened to look out the
window at a river. The first time was in Budapest. The river was the Danube. I woke up just before sunrise,
walked out onto a balcony, and in the cold air at first light, looked out across the Pest hills and the first
glimmerings of day on the broad, mud-colored water. The smell of it was in the air. I realized that I didn't know
much of its geography. I knew that it originated somewhere in the Alps, flowed east across southern Germany
-the Nibelungenleid consists of Danube river tales—and south from Vienna through Hungary and then
southeast again through Serbia, emptying into the Black Sea somewhere south of Odessa.
