Customer Review: 21 February 2008

Reviewer: Richard Stancliffe

At times funny at others tragic, O'Hanlon captures the lifestyles and traditions of this country and makes the reader question what the western world could do to help or conversely why we should avoid interfering in this colourful and fascinating world. Thanks Penguin for introducing me to this book through your series. I loved it.
