Five Stars
Very insightful..

NOT BAD!!!
falling for travelogues
Once upon a time I found in my hand a book of unusual caliber: journeys of discovery to some of the world's lonely places.
Excellent style

Pico Iyer has a keen eye and great facility with words, and therefore his books always make for great reading.
