The author is married to a Doctors Without Borders physician who is working in Burma. He describes the joys and pains of living there in a low key way. It is funny and moving. I am going to look for his other books where (I hope) he does the same thing in China and North Korea.
I can vouch for the China one -- very nice.
ReplyDeleteThanks... the library is getting that one for me too.
ReplyDeleteI just read Burma Chronicles yesterday. Wonderful graphic novel with a geopolitical slant. Can't wait to read Pyongyang.
