    Here's another recommendation that just popped up in my mind - Stuart Stevens. I have read (and own) 2 of his books - Malaria Dreams and Night Train to Turkistan. Both are excellent! Happy reading!

    Heard a lot of good things about "A Long Way Gone". It's just that I watched a lot of Sierra Leone documentaries and such for a while, that I wanna take a break before I take up material from that part of the world again. It does sort of get to you........very sad. :-((

    Hmmm, it's tough to recommend just a few from a genre that I read for 10+ years before actually making the move to general fiction/literature. Here's a 1st attempt. I am including those that made a real impression on me...

    My invented country - Isabel Allende
    Elie Wiesel – Night
    River Town – Peter Hessler
    Looking for Alaska - Peter Jenkins
    The Zanzibar Chest – Aidan Hartley
    In Xanadu – William Dalrymple
    Indian Summer – Will Randall
    The Ends of the Earth – Robert Kaplan
    In Patagonia – Bruce Chatwin

    You can always check for more on my shelf under the respective tags.
    Happy reading!
