En virkelig, virkelig god reiseskildring om litteratur, eller kulturskoletime om reiser. Forfriskende god og annerledes. Hvorfor er ikke Neuman oversatt til norsk?
I should title this review How to Read About Latin America Without Knowing Anything About Latin America. That's what I did. I loved the idea behind this book. Neuman traveled around Latin America, visiting nineteen countries after winning an important book award, and wrote down quick impressions in every country he visited. I must admit I didn't know any of the politicians he mentions and I only vaguely had heard of a couple of the authors he writes about. It doesn't matter. The book was fresh and fun and clever.
