Every time Bill Bryson walks out the entranceway, memorable travel literature threatens to break out.
His previous excursion along the Appalachian Trail led to the sublime national bestseller A Walk in the Woods. In A Sunburned Country is his report on what he within an completely different place: Australia, the country that doubles as a continent, and a location with the friendliest inhabitants, the hottest, driest weather, and the most peculiar and lethal wildlife to be found on earth. The result is a deliciously funny, fact-filled, and adventurous performance by the writer who combines humor, wonder, and unflagging curiousity.
Despite the actual fact that Australia harbors more things that can kill you in extremely nasty ways than somewhere else, including sharks, crocodiles, snakes, even riptides and deserts, Bill Bryson adores the area, and he takes his readers over a rollicking ride far beyond that beaten tourist path. Wherever he goes he finds Australians who are cheerful, extroverted, and unfailingly obliging, and these beaming products of land with clean, safe cities, cold beer, and continuous sunshine fill the pages of the wonderful book.
Australia is an immense and fortunate land, and it has within Bill Bryson its perfect guide.
