Description: |
Collects tales of travel misadventures from Bill Bryson, Dave Barry, Anne Lamott, David Sedaris, Adair Lara, Randy Wayne White, Mark Salzman, JP Donleavy, Elliot Neal Hester, and other travel writers. |
Synopsis: |
If you think you know what's the worst than can happen while traveling, the essayists in Not So Funny When it Happened will set you straight. In over 30 scathingly funny pieces, a diverse array of authors shows just how quickly a pleasant vacation can turn into an embarrassing anecdote. In Vietnam, John Wood invents increasingly elaborate fictions to explain his ex-wife's "accidental death" in order to avoid humiliating himself by admitting he's divorced. Australian traveler Jayce White awakens in Zimbabwe to a baboon at his breakfast table helping himself to leftovers with primal flair. Collected in Not So Funny When it Happened, these stories and more show that when traveling, even the best of plans fall by the wayside. |
