Summary: I'm hooked!
Review: This was my first Theroux novel and I'm already hooked. Theroux's descriptions of the fascinating people he encounters on the trip--from prostitutes to statesmen--are truly captivating. Even better are his vivid descriptions of the incredible scenery he takes in on his trip from London to the Far East. Be forewarned: once you read this book you will be tempted to quit your job, grab a backpack, and head for rails. If you enjoy the likes of Bill Bryson and Tim Cahill, you will certainly enjoy this novel.

Summary: The Great Railway Bizzar...
Review: What an amazing book. It is the first book I have read by Paul Theroux and I am hooked. The descriptions he gives of every situation along the way are such that you feel you are living the moments with him. Having travelled a little, I can relate to a lot of the references he makes. References to smells and sights and sounds which form memories. He is the final straw that has convinced me to travel the Trans Siberian. A great book.
