Product Description

Synopsis

This travelogue begins with the terrifying account of the storm that left Eric Hansen and four companions shipwrecked on a deserted Red Sea island. Rescued by smugglers and taken to the Yemen coast, Hansen found himself increasingly enthralled by this little-known land, intrigued by its customs, charmed by its natural beauty and captivated by its people as he travelled the country, seeking out its wildest geography and rarest wildlife while searching for a way to retrieve the travel journals he lost in the shipwreck. A humorous mix of reportage, comedy and tension, this is a glimpse into a country insufficiently understood by the West, and into a culture at once secretive and friendly, alien and enchanting.

5.0 out of 5 stars A gripping read - gives a real feel of life in Yemen, 25 Jan 2002

By A Customer

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Eric Hansen has a very appealing descriptive writing style. His story is autobigraphical, of an American returning to Yemen to retrive some diaries left there 10 years before.He describes the political, socio-cultural aspects so minutely that you could even believe that you are experiencing it for yourself. I particularly like his descriptions of the smells that he encountered on his trip and this adds depth to his already imaginative prose.
