Synopsis "Coffee in Cuba"
Not so much a travel book as a manual on the underrated art of blundering abroad. This is written by one of the greatest exponents of the art. Few people have blundered around as adventurously and entertainingly Hopeless at reading maps but deals with bouncing desserts in the USSR. No sense of direction but finds how to be immortal from the knees down in ancient Greece. Blundering about some of the world s most magical places can pay dividends. In a world where even taxi drivers don t know how to drive out of Havana he finds the magnificent area built by the Mafia and then the six lane highway to the Caribbean where the traffic stop for cattle crossing. In a vain search for quality cuisine he finds himself in the dark streets of Cuba s second city without a guide but then ends the evening in a club of miraculous musicians and mesmeric dancers. Can anywhere combine great food, wonderful buildings, friendly people and operatic lifestyle with chilling history better than Rome? Can anyone have blundered more profitably down its dark streets to some of the best food in Europe? Can any country hold more treasures, ancient and modern than Greece and its many islands. Learn how the ancient Greeks spoke to the dead and how the monks of Meteora created one of the most astonishing wonders. Not a travel book for the well organised, but one for those who like surprises and smiles along with reflections on history, food, language and the conveyor belt of human beauty . You will not find another travel book like it. You will be glad you have blundered into i
