Getting Stoned with Savages
GETTING STONED WITH SAVAGES (J. Maarten Troost) - Three Stars
I haven't been reading much lately, and was pondering closing down this site. I decided to keep it open (since my reading thirst waxes and wanes), but I'm scaling back. From now on, each "review" will simply be a start rating and maybe one or two sentences about the book. Detailed conversation can occur in the comments section if anyone desires.
Getting Stoned with Savages doesn't have quite the freshness of Troost's preceding book, Sex Lives of Cannibals, but his writing does have a good humor to it and his books are a nice combination of travel guide and anthropological study.
