I think I read reviews for more books that I could ever possibly read in my life time. 🙂
Here’s a fun one I read about on the Guardian’s web site a couple of days ago, Lost Cosmonaut, by Daniel Kalder. The review says that Kalder’s book discusses places in Russia that Russians haven’t even heard about, let alone Americans. (Hurry and read this review before it falls off whatever archived page it’s on.) Basically, Kalder is an anti-Tourist, who goes places to right-minded vacationer would ever dream of going. My image of it is like Bill Bryson but in more exotic locales.
Enjoy.
