Title: Falling Off the Map: Some Lonely Places of the World
Author: Pico Iyer
Publisher: Vintage
Year: 1993
200 pages
Since Iyer's account is dated, it's best to read this as a series of snapshots in time. Iyer muses on his experiences in a wide variety of countries. I don't agree with his "lonely places" premise, but the essays were otherwise enjoyable, though not illuminating. This might be interesting to read as a stimulus for a book discussion about one's own experience in any of these countries in relation to Iyer's.
