BiblioTravel entry
I’ve added Dark Star Safari to BiblioTravel – this book took me about 6 months to read, but it was worth it (good preparation for my trip, even though I’m only visiting one country in Africa)!
Here’s an excerpt from my entry:
… Theroux’s journey takes him from the top of Africa to the southernmost tip. As he explores eastern Africa (mainly by bus, car, or train) he tries to offer readers a view of the continent that is different from what we are likely to find in newspaper headlines.
