Absolutely love the way Michael Palin writes his books. Not only is his as honest as possible about the situations that he finds himself in, but also his comedy back ground creeps in on many occassions. Michael Palin starts this journey in Slovenia and makes his way through many of the now old Eastern Bloc countries. He takes along with him his trusted camera crew and other helpers that make the journey go with as few problems as possible, but it is these problems, along with Michaels way of writing about these that make the book so enjoyable. He has had leeches stuck to his chest to purify his blood, a bush hat adorned on his head in a ritual ceremony as well as walking through a toilet factory, all to keep his readers entertained yet educated of the world that many will not know or tread. Palin is as truthful as can be about the areas he visits - whether it be a poor or rich area he does get involved with everything thrown his way. Bring on the next...
