Detours: Songs of the Open Road by Salil Tripathi

Detours: Songs of the Open Road by Salil Tripathi
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

If you wish to know about the haunts of various authors, poets and some artists in the different cities of the world then this is the book to read.

The author has traveled far and wide and has followed the footsteps of many an author. The book is an outcome of these travels. Ernest Hemingway is one author that the author has followed long distances.

He has traveled to many War torn countries, countries preferred and frequented by authors, poets and artists. He also has a set of essays on countries which he had visited with his wife and which he revisited either alone or with his sons.

From Columbia to Cambodia he has visited most countries, some exotic some popular.

Decent read. Don't expect to learn any culture or too much of history about the countries.
