I.B. K. (Ostkind) reviewed Travel authors who need to read the Economist so they won't feel constantly "embarrassed" on 5/8/2009 + 146 more book reviews

Helpful Score: 3

Author is very naive about the world. Prose is sorely lacking. Oh how I long for Paul Theroux; I've been spoiled and expect clever, insightful observations, maturity, and wonderful literary references. Nor did I find this book remotely funny. Naming all the animals you see in the nature reserve is not good writing.
